DISTRICT NURSING SERVICE – ARARAT – BRCC44

Great care from the home care nurses who came to see me.  Very kind and understanding.

It was a pleasure to have the District Nurses call twice a day when I wasn’t well.

This is a wonderful service to help people when they return home from hospital.  The nurses are all so kind and caring.

Thank you to the Community Nurses for their ongoing visitation.  Always caring and helpful.

I have had a wound dressed by a Community Nurse over the past few months and I cannot speak highly enough of this wonderful service.

I was visited at home for treatment following surgery and at all times I found the Community Nursing staff very helpful, friendly and professional and I would sincerely like to thank them.
