Our family used the Salus Company for 6 years of wonderful caregivers in my mother’s home. When she needed more care, they found us a lovely board and care home with a great owner and 3 nice caregivers. As my mother’ s health declined, Salus found us a great doctor and we initiated the hospice process. The Salus Hospice team was amazing! I met with the nurse, Maria Rienzo, at every visit. She was informative, compassionate, and communicated extremely well to my mother”s 3 caregivers and to the doctor. She made sure my mother was comfortable and ordered anything she needed. My mother and our family also received great emotional support from the social worker, Mary Hackman, Mary was a rock star!
