My dad came home several weeks ago after an extended hospital stay, and the team at Gurwin Home Care has been so supportive and helpful for both of my parents. Barbara, his nurse, is so caring and her expertise and follow up has saved them from going back to the hospital on at least two occasions, instead guiding them and even calling his physician to collaborate. Courtney and Paul (PT and OT) have been great, really helping him manage in his home and learn some new, safer ways to do things. The staff from Gurwin has made sure my dad is supported and can stay home and stable, which has been a huge relief for my family. Thank you again so much for being so kind, helpful and thorough!

I have been taking care of my mother for about 4 years now. I have had many agencies in and out of this house. And I've got to tell you that Gurwin is the most Professional Home Health Care Agency to date. They were recommended to me through another very professional Health Care Agency; Landmark. These people and their employees seem to keep on top of the situation. I would highly recommend both agencies
