To gather results, 100 clients and 33 family members provided feedback about their experience with Mercy Health Home Care Services.

Feedback from clients included: “I could not survive without them”, and “they are everything elderly people need”.

Our net promoter scores of +73 (clients) and +61 (family members) were among the highest Colmar Brunton had ever seen.
