The home health nurse is very good in her service and is very knowledgeable for all my questions. The physical therapy was a great addition which I definitely needed. They are very clean and sanitize every item used during my service. Thanks for providing such a wonderful visit and admission. .... DeKalb Regional Home Health service I gave them a 5 star review...... Thanks again......

The clinicians at this home health are very helpful and friendly and professional. This home health strives to give the best care to all its patients. They are not part of the Dekalb Hospital!!!!

Both of my grandparents were taken care of by the nurses at Dekalb Regional Home Health and loved everyone who came to see them. They said they were all kind, caring and compassionate and listened to what they had going on and relayed back to their Dr and worked hard to help them. They would recommend them to anyone needing help at home. Since then I have started working in the office for them and seen first hand how hard every clinician works at great care for the patients

Great Home Health! Always friendly. Arrived on time. Very knowledgeable and made us feel like family. They have taken care of my father twice for knee replacement and he received great care both times.

I went in after a car accident. I was concussed and had a separated shoulder. I spent over 5 hours in there. It took them 2 hours to give me a pain shot. The attending doctor almost sent me home without a proper diagnoses on my shoulder. (Somehow he got me confused with the patient next door). They did not ice my shoulder. They did not tell me to ice my shoulder. My friend said the bathrooms were very dirty and the examining rooms had litter on the floor. They gave us a choice of hospitals at the accident scene. Guess which one I won't pick next time.
