My experience with UW Northern Illinois Home Health has been extremely disappointing. The nursing staff demonstrated a shocking level of disrespect and rudeness towards me and my family. They were unwelcoming and dismissive of my schedule and infusion needs. Not only unwelcoming but disrespectful and discriminatory towards me and my needs as well as asking inappropriate questions and concerning comments. Communication with the team was equally abysmal, with unhelpful and insensitive responses to my concerns. I would not recommend this service to anyone looking for compassionate and professional care.

Essentially told me they would not supply what I needed, because our insurance company wouldn’t reimburse them, enough money. I have to jump through hoops to receive any kind of help.

Can never get through to anyone to get a refill on supplies. Very frustrating!

Horrible service! The billing department and customer service is terrible and you should find another provider. I love Swedish American Hospital, but this department sucks! Go elsewhere!
