[January 2007] [August 14, 2007] “I am impressed with the care, meals, and general atmosphere. The interest Magda and Daniela [show] toward the well being of the residents is excellent.” — Charles Kozlik
“My mother and her surroundings were kept exceptionally clean and attractive and her care was personalized to meet her every whim! I so appreciated having other loving hands care for my mother when I could no do so…. “The food was outstanding and mom ate better with Daniela than she had in several years.” — Anna Myers
“We have our mother back!” “Our mother, Anna,…was having trouble walking, getting out of a chair and was sleeping in a recliner because she didn’t have the strength to get herself in and out of bed. It has been four months and we have our mother ‘back’! She has thrived in your care. She is walking with confidence and is not only sleeping in a bed, but is able to get out of bed by herself during the night.” — Cheryl Carrier, RN
“Our Mom has…come to feel a welcomed member of [the Sylvan Heights] family.” — Teri Bocci Gellos, RN, BSN, CPAN
“[Daniela’s] most outstanding characteristic as a caregiver is her enthusiasm, positive energy and ability to motivate clients to accomplish tasks others might conclude are beyond them. She was able [to] help Mother walk and take nourishment when all others had given up. ” — Dr. Jonathan Lurie, Ph.D.
“I have called you all angels on earth often during the past year while you were watching over my dear mother….” “Placing a loved one in a care home is not an easy task for most people and I am no exception. Your caregivers erased all of my worries and guilt by your devotion to healing and consistent warm hugs.” — Marlene Trask “The foster care home you have is one of the best I have ever had the opportunity to work with. As a home health nurse I have the opportunity to visit different adult foster homes on an ongoing basis, and for a number of years now yours remains at the top of the list.” — Evelyn Grant, RN “When Jo first arrived at the Banica Home, she was weak, depressed, sick and confused…. Magda worked tirelessly with me, Jo’s doctor and Jo to get her on a [medication] schedule to optimize her health….When we came to pick Jo up for her birthday celebration…, she was completely transformed from the first day at Banica…. She was happier than she’d been in years, able to walk and completely lucid. The Banica Home staff gave Jo back to us! It was a day I’ll never forget with Jo.” — Barbara Ainslie
