Testimonials

Chris Maes

(Chris is the mother of Amanda Arthur, who suffered critical injuries in an automobile accident and came to CareMeridian’s Cowan Heights facility in a coma.)

“I feel CareMeridian was a real blessing in our lives. The care that Amanda received was remarkable. We couldn’t be more pleased that (Director of Nursing) Rita (Pathmanaban) and her marvelous therapists treated Amanda with such compassion, professionalism and dedication.

“She was at Cowan Heights for four months with traumatic brain damage. Thanks to the staff, she is now working three days a week in an oncology office, recently received her driver’s license and went out and bought a car, much to our surprise.

“As a family, CareMeridian’s top-notch people were a great comfort to our family as they worked with Amanda as a team. They also went out of their way to make us feel at home. Starting with Rita, the staff gave us all of its love and best effort. Cowan Heights is a very special place, with very special people.

“Because Amanda was captain of her Newport Harbor High School song team, she had literally hundreds of visitors. Knowing how much they could help in Amanda’s recovery, CareMeridian staff made all of those visits possible. It was something to see and we are deeply appreciative.

“Our experience with CareMeridian was truly a memorable one.”
