Kind Words from Clients

Brian Fry

Lismore NSW

Monica is a very experienced, knowledgeable and kind person with decades of practical nursing experience. I participated in her course about End of Life issues in the spring of 2025, and found it really great. She showed us that while death comes to us all, it is a natural part of life; I like to say, “we all graduate”. We had a good group of about 12 participants in the course, and there was both a lot of discussion and listening. We learned that embracing some planning about wills, health directives and funeral arrangements helps keep things in perspective and prevents fear of death from ruling the day. Monica was our captain in navigating this thinking, and her practical knowledge and good-natured kindness won us all over. She is very good at caring for people and putting people at ease. You will not be sorry to work with Monica!

“We cannot recommend Monica highly enough. When Mum’s health declined rapidly, we felt completely overwhelmed and unprepared. Monica stepped in with such grace and knowledge. She helped us create a care plan that honored Mum’s wishes, taught us practical caregiving skills, and was available whenever we needed guidance – even at 2am. Her ability to balance professionalism with heartfelt empathy is rare and precious. Monica helped transform what could have been a traumatic experience into a meaningful farewell filled with love and connection.”

“As a gay man caring for my partner of 30 years, I was worried about judgment or lack of understanding from healthcare providers. Monica was completely affirming and respectful of our relationship and our choices. She helped Tom maintain his dignity and autonomy right to the end, and made sure his wishes were documented and honored. She also checked in on my wellbeing and connected me with grief support after Tom passed. Monica creates a safe, inclusive space for everyone, regardless of their background or circumstances.”
