Referring a family member or friend
“Alison from the ADEC Care Coordination Team has been fabulous, always so communicative and compassionate in her approach with my mother in law. We must commend her for the service she provides. We must also acknowledge the excellent support workers who have come to help her. We have been so grateful for the support from ADEC and have only wonderful praises for your team.”
“I am pleased with ADEC services in general and with Youssef’s case manager. My case manager goes above and beyond and understands Youssef’s needs and always support him the best. I found ADEC very helpful and supportive, this was not the case back in my country and I am very happy how ADEC supports Youssef. I will recommend ADEC to my friends as a very good, caring and reliable provider.”
“Since I work with ADEC, they have helped me so much and supported me at all times. I am thankful to them for understanding me specially cause I am not fluent with English and it is hard for me to speak and understand specifically if a person speaks fast. They always make sure to clear things up to me so I can understand well, I really appreciate them speaking slowly to me and help me understand things and getting it right. I am really grateful for all help and support I have.”
