Nicole Heller
Executive Director
Nicole’s journey to Eden Health began in 1995 with her time as a Medical Laboratory Technician in the Air Force. After becoming an RN in 2008 and later earning her Healthcare Administration degree, she became a Long Term Care Survey Supervisor with the Department of Health. Surveying various post-acute provider types, it was there that she found her love of Home Health and Hospice finding it an immense privilege to care for patients in their own environments at such a vulnerable time. After 20 years of desert living between New Mexico and Nevada, Nicole headed to the greener pastures of Washington where she loves to spend time hiking, running and being outdoors with her family including her husband, children, daughter in law and granddaughter. Nicole is so grateful for the opportunity that Eden Health has to touch and improve the lives of those in our community!

WHAT THEY SAY...
What are our patients are saying about us?
The service I received from Eden Home Health in Bellingham, WA was excellent! The PT, PTA were so patient with me as I struggled with the aftereffects of knee replacement surgery. Not only did they support me with my physical recovery but also the emotional struggles I was experiencing. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Thank you, Eden!
Very pleasant. I enjoyed talking to her. She asked very good questions and listened to my answers. I did not mind talking to her at all.
I had Deanne wrap my legs today and she was outstanding. She put saline and a clear lotion to clean and protect my legs. She was informative and knowledgeable in addition to being gentle and not hurting me. The whole family really liked her. I'd like to have her wrap my legs in the future. She was awesome.
The Eden Hospice Care Team has gone above and beyond. We couldn't have done this without them.
Excellent communication and great service even if it was for a short time… definitely will promote Eden Home Care to others!! Thank you for help in a pinch.
So thankful for Eden Health Care. All aspects are responsive and so helpful for the care of my elderly mother. Couldn't do it without them.
Eden Health has been to my mom's home a few times now for physical therapy and getting back to daily activities. Great communication on scheduling.
I am a new client of Eden Home Care. I want to comment about a caregiver that has stood out to me. Her name is Vita and she's been very professional and easy to communicate with. She's also confident and strong and this is important because I have balance issues and need steadying. She is personable but doesn't talk your ear off. Also, she is very efficient and can get a lot of work done in her scheduled time. I highly recommend Vita as a caregiver.
