"My mum lives in Auckland and came to visit me in Napier for Xmas. Unfortunately she got extremely sick and ended up in hospital over the New Year’s period. This was obviously not a good time to go in as wards were running on less than minimum staffing levels. When Miranda Smith Homecare heard about this, they immediately got in touch and offered me help… which I gratefully took them up on. So a BIG shout out to the team, who between them gave me some much needed respite time to sleep and deal with a very full household. They would sit with mum and be her advocate when I wasn’t there. After six days of being bedridden, they then encouraged mum to start eating, drinking and walking. Finally when mum was released, Miranda Smith Homecare was a HUGE help and helped me accompany mum home to Auckland. THANK YOU Miranda Smith!"
