"Hello... I want to make specific note of the great service
your organization has been providing to my family. My mother has
been suffering from a severe broken leg and has required transport
on three occasions from Strathmore into Calgary for medical treatment.
Your guys, Benson and Glen have been providing the transportation
each time. I want to pay my sincerest compliments to you, your organization,
and specifically the two individuals mentioned above for the level
of absolute professionalism, friendliness, and a caring to-the-extra-mile
attitude that has been provided. These trips which can easily become
quite traumatic for the patients if not handled appropriately have
turned into an absolute 'no big deal' due in no small part to the
efforts an professionalism of your people. Congratulations on such
a well-run business, it is very refreshing to experience. I wish
you every success in your future endeavors, from what I can see
you certainly deserve it."
- Mark Becker
"Just a quick note to convey our
sincere thanks for your services in transporting my dad from Peter
Lougheed Centre in Calgary to the MSA Hospital in Abbotsford. The
attendants, Jody and Dallas, made the trip a pleasure with their
friendly competence. The level of care offered was very adequate
for my dad's needs as he was recuperating from hip surgery and a
heart attack. He arrived in good shape at the end of a 12 hour trip."
-Neil Carleton
"We want to say Thank You for the
great service that you provided from Camrose to Lethbridge.
Trevor & Joe were very professional and concerned for my Mother's
comfort and myself at all times.
This mad the move from Camrose a lot easier than we thought and
we will highly recommend your company. Thank you again"
- Anne Wetch
"My mother is 92 years old and is
confined to a wheelchair. Jodi and Patrick were the attendants and
did an excellent job. I found them to be very kind and caring and
they provided an excellent service. I commend you for having such
fine young people in your organization. Thank you, as you made my
Mother a very happy person on this very special day."
-Barbara Lausen
First of all I would like to thank you
and your employees for the respectful and caring service you provide
to the residents of Agapé Hospice. Genesis Medi-Shuttle has
enabled our residents to leave the confines of their rooms and realize
their final dreams.
As I review our relationship with Genesis, it reminds me just how
valuable this service is. Many of our residents and families struggle
financially and this reality can act as a barrier or added stressor
as they try to honour appointments in the community, attend special
family events, or return home for a short period or permanent stay.
Your deep concern for others and flexibility when working with these
challenging scenarios, helps dissipate the impact such barriers
bring.
While not all requests for outings are life sustaining in a medical
sense, they do add quality of life to those fortunate enough to
access your services. It is my belief that our staff and families
appreciate the generosity found within your professional philosophy
and practice restraint in requesting transport. In your presence
and under your care, people feel respected, safe, and well cared
for.
It is our hope this valuable service remains available and affordable
to all our hospice families in crisis.
Yours truly,
Jacqueline S. Lemke,
MSW, RSW,
Social Worker,
Agape Hospice
I am a palliative Home Care nurse and
wanted to thank you for the great service you are providing. You
transported one of my clients a few weeks ago to TBCC for a radiation
assess and treat and the family was extremely happy with your staff
and service. They said that knowing the service was available and
that it was such a positive experience would be a positive deciding
factor in them agreeing to go back to the TBCC in the future for
further tests and treatments if needed.
Great job, thanks!

Not that I should be encouraging you to
do business in Okotoks when we need you so badly in Calgary! - it
made such a difference to Gord that you did that for him and my
lady Alma would never have made it without you. Being able to get
to these final appointments is so important for our people, physically
and psychologically. He was so thrilled when he was at Rosedale
that you guys stopped by to say hello whenever you did a run there
with someone else.
You really are an important cog in the wheel of palliative care
because you provide kind and compassionate and non-invasive transportation
at such a difficult time in people's lives. Use my words anytime
- there are lots more praise any day for you all!
Thanks again, Alison
I wanted to write to tell you how
much your driving service meant to us. My husband had been confined
to bed for three months when a nurse suggested Genesis Medishuttle
might take us out of the hospice for a ride for his birthday. We
wanted to drive to some of our favorite local spots in the country,
places we had visited with our children when my husband was well.
Neither my husband nor I expected such a grand day. The care and
professionalism demonstrated when you and Valerie picked us up immediately
imparted a sure sense of security. From there, it just became fun.
Your thoughtfulness and that of your assistant, Valerie, provided
a day that created warm and wonderful memories at a time when most
days seem like a blur to us.
From the moment I first spoke to you on the phone to enquire abour
your services, through to the end of our beautiful day in the country,
we were treated to a quality of care, compassion, humanity and fun
far surpassing our expectations.
For all of that, we thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Sandra & Alasdair Nairn
