Review of Revival home health care

I just got out of NYU Langone where I had a cancerous bladder removed. Revival was contracted to send a health care worker over in order to change my ostomy bag. A male nurse came in and I asked him if he was vaccinated. He said he was but showed no proof. I told him I needed the interface and the bag changed. He grabbed a bag out of a sample kit that was sent to us, pulled the old bag off without using any sort of solvent and put the new on and said "We're done." I said this was not the way we were shown at the hospital. He said this is a special bag. After he left things seemed okay but then the bag started to leak and the bed became soaked in urine. I called them and asked to send another nurse over the next day. Never showed. Meanwhile my wife was able to change the interface and the bag and I was told by the ostomy team that if would suffice until my next hospital visit.
