Dear Mr. Fadia,

I recently ordered material from Homestead Schools and although the invoice was correct the material was not what I ordered. I called and spoke with a customer service representative named Vanessa. Vanessa's response deserves acknowledgment.

At first the news was discouraging: the computer was down. Vanessa took my information, and gave me her extension number, and said she would call me as soon as the system was up again.

The next day the system was up, and she called me. She intelligently gathered the needed information in a timely manner, explained she had to check if the correct material was readily available,and again gave her extension number.

In less than thirty minutes Vanessa called saying the material was available, and gave clear explanations about everything concerning the exchange of materials including that Homestead would pay the return postage and provide a label. I received the material quickly, as promised, within two days.

I also had additional questions about the On-line Exam, and her instructions were comprehensible. Vanessa also invited me to call her if I had problems using the systems, and said she would walk me through it.

Vanessa was professional, efficient, and also established the sense of a personal as well as a professional relationship with Homestead Schools. If Homestead provides this training for employees, then thank you very much. If Vanessa is an exception then thank you for having her on staff, and perhaps she should be prompted to train others to her standard of excellence. A contact person truly represents the firm. An employee like Vanessa encourages me to be a return customer. There have been other representatives of other businesses (of all types) that have loist my business altogether, or will not get any return business from me because of the contact person.

The Service you provide is deeply appreciated as well as the excellent educational materials.

Best regards,
K.S, LCSW, Satisfied Customer.

To Christy and her Supervisor,

This email is to give you a big Thank you for being there, you really help me with my issue, when I was upset and believed I had been the victim of fraud. Thank to you and your help, I can now access my on line course. :-)

Thank you Christy for being a professional, and for caring enough to actively listen to me.

I called Homestead School when I could not access the on line course I had paid for and had a confirm # for. I though I would call the 800 # and explain my problem and get a little support.

What I got was an impatient, highly unprofessional, rude, loud, angry, uncaring, self centered, individual named Jackie who just about in my opinion, cursed me out, twice and who had absolutely no listening skills. After speaking with Jackie, I was afraid that I had come across a fraudulent company online and believed Homestead School was a fraud and felt they had stolen 39.99 from me. I actually thought Jackie was some angry owner of Homestead School (what employee would be allowed to speak to customers on the phone like that, in this tough ecomomy). I thought, I never want to do business with Homestead School and wanted to request a refund. I have been a nurse for almost 20 yrs and currently in a position of leadership and was convinced I should email my hundreds of nurse colleagues about the outlandish, mean spirited and completely unprofessional treatment I received from Homestead Schools.

I thought, I would call Homestead Schools, during the day to see if it was business as usual, when to my surprize I found Christy and all my problems and headaches faded away immediately! Christy took the time to listen and understand my concerns, she clarified the issues and got to work on reassuring me immediately that she could fix the problem. Christy also reassured me that Homestread School does not operate in an unprofessional manner, wants to make their customers happy and assured me the owners expect professionalism from their staff.

Christy thank you, you took genuine and sincere interest in my complaint and concerns, and I thank you. I am a totally happy camper now, I have everything I need to take my course and get my CEU's. (which is all I ever wanted to do anyway). Now, I will tell all my colleagues, Homestead Schools is alright, and if you have any problems, just call Christy, during the day and avoid calling after 5 pm.

Christy please forward this note on to your supervisor, as it is my hope that the Leadership Team at Homestead School, pull Jackie from the phones and engaging with consumers, until she can be reoreinted to her role, exercise consistent professional phone skill at all times, and undergo serious professional rehabilitation with a corrective action plan in place.

Christy many thanks again for your help and support.

All my best,

Gail Ferguson, RN, BNS
Clinical Nursing Supervisor

Gail,

I've read your email and looked into the treatment you received from Jackie which we do not allow under any circumstances. I'll personally take this matter up with her and make sure that she understands her role at this business. I'm pleased to know that Christy was able to take care of your needs in a professional manner.

Feel free to communicate to her or even me in the future if there's anything we can do for you. I'd like to ask your permission to see if we can put your letter on our website since it shows our weakness and strength and projects a true picture of our business.

Vijay Fadia
President
Homestead Schools, Inc.

Hello Vijay,

Thank you for your interest and your email.

Yes, please feel free to use my letter on your website. I am so delighted with you, and your committment to outstanding customer service and to properly training staff. This reflects highly on your integrity and on my perceptions of the company.

Staff can make an error, but what makes the difference, is when the Leader of the organization has high professional standards, is not willing to accept anything but the best and stands up for what is right.

Vijay, I am impressed by your immediate attention, as well as your professional, proactive and highly engaged approach. To your credit, I am a happy customer and have started looking for other courses of interest on the Homestead School website to take for CEUs. Vijay, many thanks to you and your team for being there for me and quickly resolving my issue. I will happily refer all my nursing colleagues to Homestead Schools for their CEU's!.

All my best,

G.F., RN, BSN.
Clinicial Nursing Supervisor

I would like to compliment Jennifer Dayrit on her patience and professionalism in helping me with a problematic situation. After several technical issues which became frustrating to me, she was able to continually find alternatives to rectify the situation and was expedient in getting information to me that was time-sensitive. At no point in the process did she ever sound frustrated or irritated and I am grateful for her demeanor which helped me move through the difficulties with far less anxiety than what could have happened.
Sincerely, J.J., LPC, NC.

You did a terrific job on presenting the material. Very educating."
"Excellent! It will help me both professionally and personally. Thank you."
"I had the choice to study when the time was good for me."
"I'll definitely use Homestead Schools for all my future CE."

"Thank you Homestead Schools for your quick and reliable service!"

Dear Vijay,
With the holiday season over there is now time to catch up on things undone. I wish to say thank you.
I'm the person who sent a test answer sheet for nursing continuing education to the wrong address, yours, twice. Twice you mailed them back.
Thank you so very much for being the caring, understanding person that you are.
Because you were so considerate I did not lose those valuable points.
Thank you, Bless you!

I commend those who work for you and who help those of us to continue out education in nursing and/or re-enter the nursing profession.

"The board of nursing sent me some forms in the mail. I received it yesterday. They will allow me to take the NCLEX again. You know, that is good news for me. I will have a better chance after I finish the program. It is indeed a divine arrangement or intervention by God to have people like you and Mr. Ignacio. I will continue to put in time to study ahead of the class like I am doing now. Mrs. Merlyn is a good teacher. Thank you for the opportunity. I will not let you down. You will continue to hear and see my progress in Batch 7. Please extend my gratitude to Mr. Ignacio, Mrs. Merlyn, my teacher, and the rest of the teachers both in the classroom and in the clinical. Thank you for giving me the chance of a lifetime. God bless you and all the staff who are helping to make things happen. Please continue to keep me in your prayers."
B.A., a VN student

"I am simply going to write or send the board an email to let them know that I appreciate the opportunity they have given me and to let them know that I am in a program preparing me for the NCLEX and I hope to take the test when I finish the program since it will enable me to have a better chance of passing the test. They stated in the letter that I can take the test anytime I want and up to eight chances a year. All they want me to do is enroll and pay for the test and nothing more since they already have me in their system and they have all they needed from me on file. I will finish the program. By God's grace I will continue to do well. I am doing very well right now. I have not failed any class tests. I hope to continue to do better than my best. Please do not forget to express my appreciation to Mr. Ignocio. I deeply appreciate the opportunity. I am still attending the other class on Tuesdays, it will help me do even better. Thanks George, I am counting on your support and prayers, I have come a very long way to America. I cannot afford to fail. I will not quit, a quitter never wins. Thanks George."
