"When my mother developed a non- healing wound following a biopsy, I was very concerned about how the wound would be cared for as I lived 2 hours from my mother. When I inquired about available services, the nurse from the wound clinic referred me to Carlene Blickhan with CareLink.
Carlene began making visits to care for my mother’s wound; they also assessed my mother’s vital signs, pulmonary rates and emotional status.
When my mother was hospitalized while I was on vacation, Carlene visited my mother, talked with her physician and kept me informed of her progress.
The CareLink staff not only assisted my mother with her many physical needs but also provided emotional and social support.
There are not enough words to describe the appreciation I have for CareLink and their wonderful staff."
