“Without reservation, I would recommend DispatchHealth’s service to anyone who has a parent or relative that would be going to the hospital otherwise.”
“I like to be active. And to be tied down in bed in a hospital? No. I’ll take this any day.”
“If you’re getting better sleep, you’re healing better. So being at home, not only is it comfortable for you, but it tells us as providers that you’re getting better.”
