      I can't begin to express my respect and gratitude for the incredible level of support and care that the entire staff of Take Care provided for my second cousin. Given her history and circumstances, I wanted her to have the best quality of life that could possibly be provided. From the first shopping trips and companionship of a few years ago, to the beautifully attentive care she got as she lay dying this week, your team of caregivers and managers left all of us humbled and deeply moved. And by far it wasn't only my cousin whom you supported. I could never have closely and effectively managed the care of a fragile, elderly woman from so far away without the guidance, attention, and support you gave me. This of this--a lovely, kind and bright woman's life was changed in the tenth decade of life, and she could never have had those years while living comfortably and safely at home without the care and guidance you gave. You are wonderful people, and I'll never forget what you did.

      Hi Susanne, Two years ago, you helped my brother and me take care of our mother when she had fallen and broken her arm. She had dementia and gradually lost the ability to walk, talk, and eat. You answered our emergency call from California to meet and set up help for our parents who did not realize they needed it. I am writing to let you know that we are so very grateful to you. I just wanted you to know that we hold you in our grateful thoughts. You are truly an angel to help seniors, and their long-distance families, when they most need it. We will always remember you with great fondness and deep appreciation.

      To the Staff of Take Care: I just want to give a big thank you to the staff at Take Care for providing such an invaluable service. My family has been using Take Care for my grandmother since 2006 and we could not have gotten by without you. Everyone has always been so nice and helpful. I especially want to thank all of the schedulers who are always able to keep the home health aide schedule consistent, and make any schedule changes so quickly and flawlessly. I want to express my sincere appreciation to the Clinical Supervisor who has always been so responsive as well as to the four caregivers who have taken such excellent care of my grandmother over the years. I can't thank them enough for always treating my grandmother respectfully, caringly, and patiently.

      Because everyone deserves the best in care.

      General Info
      Susanne S. Wise, RN, MBA, is known throughout the community and highly respected for her caring and generous nature toward clients and employees. As a nurse, with her keen business acumen, she witnessed first-hand the need for a private duty home health care agency that would uphold higher standards and set precedence for our local community. Susanne opened Take Care Private Duty Home Health Care in Sarasota, Florida almost seventeen years ago with these standards in mind. Since then she has opened offices in Bradenton and Venice. Furthering her vision and mission to bring her clients the highest quality in care, she also intuitively forecasted the need for geriatric care management services, opening Take Care Advisor in 2008. As owner and entrepreneur of Take Care, Susanne pays special attention to two crucial elements: quality of personnel and customer service. She interviews virtually every prospective employee, as they are so intimately involved in the care provided to each client. The personnel are the foundation of how Take Care is able to provide clients with the highest level of private duty home health care, geriatric care management services, and non-emergency medical transport services. With the goal being to serve clients to the best of our ability, our employees reflect this commitment to Take Care’s standards of excellence. In addition to meeting with the caregivers, Susanne frequently visits with clients and family members to maintain the relationship and a level of customer service consistency. Susanne is a charter member of the National Private Duty Association, a member of the Home Healthcare Nurses Association, a member of the National Association of Professional Geriatric Care Managers, and a member of the Sarasota Chamber of Commerce. In 2009, the Tampa Bay Business Journal selected Susanne as a finalist in the Health Care Heroes Award program for her exemplary performance in the medical field, going above and beyond the call of duty. Since 2000, the Gulf Coast Business Review has ranked Take Care as one of the 250 largest companies in Sarasota and Manatee counties. The local community continues to recognize Take Care in the “Readers’ Choice” Awards program in the Sarasota Herald-Tribune newspaper. Since 2003, the readership of the Sarasota Herald-Tribune has choosen Take Care as one of the best home health care agencies in Sarasota. In 2009, the Bradenton Herald readership voted and selected Take Care of Manatee, Inc. as a finalist in the best home health care provider for the “Peoples’ Choice Award.” The Venice Gondolier Sun has voted Take Care in Venice as the #1 home health care agency in Venice since 2004.
