Island Home Nursing

History

Sharon Emerson and Jeanne Lepisto, both RNs living on Whidbey, realised through their work and personal lives that Whidbey Island was desperately in need of a homecare agency to serve the needs of the elderly, the disabled, those recovering from surgery, and others. Though neither one had a business background, they had lots of knowledge, experience, and common sense. Somehow they made it through the difficult early years. Now they are proudly celebrating their 30th year of serving Whidbey.

Among the many ways we can help seniors are bathing, personal care, medication reminding, cooking, light housekeeping, errands, and companionship. We are contracted with the state to provide help through various Medicaid programs such as COPES, MPC, DDD, and Respite. In addition, we accept long-term care insurance, VA benefits, and private pay.
