Terrace Health Boise

When I put my wife on hospice care through Terrace Health, I thought I would be able to be her caregiver 24/7. But I soon came to realize that I needed help. So Terrace offered to provide a caregiver named Dawn to stay with my wife a few afternoons a week to give me a break and give me a chance to get out and get some things done and have some time for myself. Dawn has been a true blessing to my wife and me during what has become an incredibly difficult time in our lives. She is now coming in 5 full days a week to care for my wife and her presence has given me something I desperately need--some time to step away, catch my breath, and have a little respite from the constant demands of caregiving. What I appreciate most is the way she cares for my wife as a person. She is patient, gentle, compassionate, and respectful of my wife's dignity. She doesn't just "watch" my wife--she truly takes care of her. I can leave the house knowing that Jan is safe, comfortable, and in good hands. For me, that peace of mind is enormous. Caregiving can be exhausting and lonely, and having someone I trust completely with my wife gives me the opportunity to recharge and come back better able to be the husband she needs me to me. Dawn has become much more than just a caregiver to us. She is someone I genuinely appreciate and trust, and I am deeply grateful for the care she gives my wife and the support she gives me.

Grateful so very Grateful is what I am to Trinity Homecare for sending TJ to my door. After 3 seven day stays at the hospital and then an 18 day stay at a Rehab TJ show up 2 days after my rehab stay, I was very weak and very scared that I would never get to be myself again. The work was slow at first. TJ ask if I felt safe in my home and then talked about safety features in my home and then it was time to go to work. TJ showed me how to use the things in my home to aid in my exercises so I could work independently til the next time I would have another session with him. As I felt more comfortable with TJ that is when I started with the questions , the many inquiries and reports of my pain and how I was truly feeling.TJ was easy to talk to and if he did not have an answer- he did the next session . TJ helped Pull me out of the Dark and gave me the courage to fight for myself , YES I am Grateful very Grateful .

We really enjoyed Casey and his professionalism. Casey has been attentive and we have enjoyed him in our home. The progress my mother has showed since Casey has been working with her has been remarkable. Very happy with the care we have received.
