I had NSI after a major trauma surgery for about a month and the connected me with Chris for Physical Therapy. Chris was so very knowledgeable and caring. He went out of his way for me to heal properly and I have lots of respect for him for it. NSI only hires the Best!

HoHoHo, Serena was an amazing home health nurse. She is so very sweet and bright. Her checkups were very thorough as well as very informative on the question asked. Santa loves NSI

My nurse Vicky was EVERYTHING!!! When she came into my home was was very nice and respectful and she took great care of me!! I would recommend Nursing Specialties to anyone!!
Janet Meredith
The physical therapist & nursing staff were great; however, I experienced problems with getting continuity of care, specifically outpatient physical therapy. Even though this home health company recommended outpatient therapy, I was told the physical therapy agency was handling approval. I called the physical therapy agency and was told they had not received any information after my discharge. You may have to be proactive with regard to your health needs after being discharged from this home health agency.

When I broke my ankle Medicare chose NSI for my in-home nursing and physical therapy. Both sides were great, all personnel providing much comfort and healing. Serena Bailey was esp appreciated for her deep knowledge of all related fields and winning personality. The phone support was also aces. I was very lucky to have NSI for this difficult time.
