Testimonials

Dr. Nugent was a guest on The Caregiver Cup Podcast where she passionately shared her wealth of expertise on navigating hospitalization. Her tips, resources, and personal stories, conveyed in layman’s terms, provided my caregiver listeners with the tools they need to become proactive advocates. She truly understands the stress and overwhelm associated with hospitalization, and she broke everything down into valuable insights and actionable ideas.
Personally, I keep her book, Prescription for Admission, on my bookshelf, knowing it’s an invaluable resource for any hospitalization scenario for myself or my loved ones. I highly recommend this Doctor’s Guide to everyone seeking to be better prepared and informed.
