They cook for him. They get the job done.

Barbara C_58

There is a period of time when your primary caregiver is on vacation, so they send a new person, and they don't seem to always know where to go. I think that the new people don't necessarily read over the instructions they are given. If I am home when a new caregiver comes, then I end up doing a lot of the work because they don't know where things are. They are extremely patient with my mom and very helpful. They understand her needs. They let her do what she can and not overcompensating for her.

We schedule the patients according to our needs and RVNA comes in and takes their therapy work to the clients after that. I like that if we have a problem, they solve it.

WRY

Ridgefield Visiting Nurse Association really pushed unecessary services on me as a joint replacement patient. They woudlnot listen to me when I assured them I did not need a social worker for any reason or an occupational therapy. They sent everyone extraneous for one reason----not me---to collect more money. The OT walked in tool a look at me and said "I don't know why I'm here. You do not need occupational therapy." But the fee was charged and that was the motive. The social worker should simply be in a different line of work. She was also work avoidant and unreliable when we used hired this agency for another reason. Just very inappropriate and unaware and cancels 2 minutes before she was to arrive. The nurse was coming far longer than she needed to come but--again--they wanted to charge whether I needed their professional visits or not. What I needed was rest from the calls and visits of people I didn't need. What I needed and got was an excellent physical therapist for a while. They work on a schedule that suits them best according to where they live. So if you are recently out of the hospital you ay have a person arrive at 8 AM. Many physicians and orthopedic surgeons live in Ridgefield, their wives work here and you ill be referred here because of their connection to the agency. I would shop around as they are after the money first...no question. To insist on sending unnecessary professional to a patient who is post surgery just shows their priority--money--and lack of concern for the patient and their need for rest. It was an exhausting array of unnecessary visits all so they could charge for them.
