“EXCEPTIONAL CARE - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - GIDEON_

We had the privilege of having Gideon as a live-in caregiver for two loved ones, and his care was outstanding.

For our bedridden father with Diabetes, Hypertension, Heart Disease, Prostate Cancer and T9/T10 fracture with suprapubic catheter, Gideon provided total dignified care. He was professional with catheter hygiene, diaper care, safe transfers, feeding, medication, vitals and blood sugar monitoring. He maintained high standards of cleanliness and ensured comfort and safety until his final moments at Mombasa Hospital. His compassion during end-of-life meant everything to us.

For our mother recovering from Stage 1 Breast Cancer surgery with CKD and Arthritis, he was equally excellent. He assisted with personal care, special diet, fluid monitoring, leg swelling management, and supported her daily walks for rehabilitation. His emotional support gave her strength and confidence.

Gideon is patient, respectful, trustworthy and treats patients with dignity and love. He is an asset to any family or hospital. We recommend him 100%.”
