I would like to acknowledge some of the best caregivers i have ever experienced in my longevity as a patient. My nurse Brandi Felix,RN is very tireless with her efforts with her profession as a nurse. I know im in good hands and receiving top quality care with her as my nurse and White Orchid. The support staff also goes above and beyond my expectations.

10/27/2024 My mother passed this morning. Adding insult to…read morethat event is the fact that less than 12 hours later, someone was at my daughter's house UNANNOUNCED, to pick up medical equipment. Checking that box off of the white orchid to-do list. Note the recurring theme...UNANNOUNCED. Notified the owner of yet another two failures (unannounced AND at the wrong address) and he proceeds to blame me for not answering the phone or responding to his text during what would be the latest 72-hours of my mother life. When corrected about that, he launches into giving me a lesson on how their business is run. I kid you not - mansplaining as only a true business person could...void of any and all compassion for me or the fact that my daughter's family was unnecessarily bothered today. He ends by telling me he has the best people in the industry - as though there is something wrong with us when we were the RECIPIENTS of horrible business practices and absence of communication. (See screenshots if you don't believe me) ********DO NOT RECOMMEND***********PROCEED WITH CAUTION************* 10/24/2024 BASED ONLY ON THIS REVIEW, my daughter received call from owner - who, as a professional entrepreneur, appears to provide copy/paste responses to negative posts that address 'may' have caused, how you 'may' have felt after having been told exactly how we felt. More emotional trauma... After 42 minutes, he then comes and justifies their actions by stating Welfare Check etc... Still not listening, still not caring about anything other than those ratings and the Medicare payments. 10/23/2024 How to rate negative numbers is something Yelp needs to figure out. I really agree with the Yelper who said the nice, caring, compassionate person who signs you up is NOT reflective of the experience you get. Heck, he doesn't even respond to my texts now. Overall, so far, our experience with White Orchid and in-home hospice care has been an emotionally abusive situation. We are losing my mother, which is traumatic enough - but THIS COMPANY takes stress to aWHOLEnother level. For the second time in 2 months, the chaplain just shows up unannounced and then acts like he's going to force you to let him in the house. Today, he continued to knock despite hearing my dogs go ballistic and me not answering the door because I was in a meeting - AND HE HAD ZERO APPOINTMENT. I told him to leave my property or I would call the cops and his response was "Go ahead! Call them!" FIVE MINUTES LATER he was still sitting in front of my house. I was terrified that he was going to try the door handle and enter on his own...had to brace the door because he would not leave. Same chaplain did the same thing on Sept 17th at my daughter's house and was CLEARLY told not to show up unannounced, EVERYONE needs an appointment. He even went as far as to say that the company tells them to come on out when the family doesn't answer the phone. They must pay him, by the visit because he certainly puts his personal wishes ahead of those of the family. A bully at best. One social worker was the same way before we had him removed from our family's case. He just showed up and got belligerent when I would not let him in the house. Had nerve enough to ask "and just who are you?" The second social worker is more professional, calls ahead of time, schedules, sends texts and asks about OUR needs. First nurse was the same way. Thankfully, Lynn (NOW) schedules and understands that we still work etc. and, even though we are at home, we can't just stop our schedules (virtual or otherwise) because they have 8 minutes to make $150 for the half-hour.

Houston Hospice - Diamond Team, lasted a week before I had to fire them and find another hospice…read morethat could provide end of life care for my mother. To begin, their intake nurses are rough, belligerent and detached. The lady we got could care less about my mother, she just wanted to do the minimum and get out. Not a single commitment was upheld, not one. We called for support and help four times in the first week and the average time to hear back from someone was two hours, then another two hours for a nurse to arrive. So if you have an emergency, just call the ambulance and have the hospital take care of it, it's faster, and your loved one will suffer less. Now, as a result of me firing them, they became hostile, threatened to make me pay for equipment they left behind and failed to retrieve. They never took into consideration that my mom had died and their employees, having missed the appointment to pick up the equipment, lied and said a dead woman was preventing them from getting it. We choose to go with another company who was hands down better suited for caring for end of life patients. Houston Hospice is a money game, you are a dollar sign, if you are cool with that, then use them.

The performance was truly engaging, bringing a unique energy and artistry to our community. A huge thank you goes out to our Life Enrichment Director, Shonta Thompson, and our Executive Director, Coco Murray, for sponsoring this event. Their generosity made it possible for us to enjoy not only a professional-grade performance but also a delightful spread of refreshments. In addition to the main show, the game and door prizes were enjoyed by the Drama Club members and the many residents who attended. It was a fantastic day of culture and connection at Clayton Oaks. We are already looking forward to the next production!

This place may be very pretty and shiny on the outside but once a loved one is there, it all goes…read moreto crap! I can't even begin to list all the issues with this place! They'll tell you that they have quick response times for their caretakers to respond to a page but 30+ minutes is not quick at all! There was even a time where the night caretakers turned off the phone that alerted them to resident's pages. There were several instances where they messed up my mother's medication and for someone with her medical history, missing these medications could've caused some major medical emergencies. My mother was constantly cleaned incorrectly. NO ONE should be cleaned so horribly wrong that feces is dried and caked up on their pubic hair. This was an ongoing issue not something that happened one time. Unfortunately my father had to go to the ER several times. I would always call the front desk and inform them what the issue was with my father and ask them to call an ambulance. One time I called back 20 minutes later to make sure my dad was headed to the hospital.... Guess what, they never called an ambulance! Thank goodness my dad wasn't having a heartache!The management there is incompetent of giving you answers to questions and problems that are going on in the facility they run! No one takes responsibility for their or their staffs screw ups! They charge an arm and a leg for care that is horrible. I don't know how anyone can be ok with treating elderly people like this! All this happened with the entire facility knowing that we were a very hands on and involved family. I can only imagine how the elderly residents, that do not have someone advocating for them, are treated. Stay far away from this place. You do not want your loved staying here!

There are Many amazing caring workers here who helped him go from a very sedated state to moving his limbs & responding to questions. Unfortunately like many facilities, they are understaffed & at times if you cannot be with your loved one to support, the care can be supar. Hence the rating of a 4 star is not for the Many, many caring nurses, doctors, & even the custodians but for the moments there are not enough staff to attend to the the needs of the patients. And One star for the lack of vending machines and that the cafeteria is not open on the weekend. ​

I don't know why I forgot to write a review for Optimum Personal Care but I shouldn't have let it…read moreslip my mind. I found out about OPC after my aunt was no longer able to live alone. OPC was a dream come true. This is a small, family owned care facility. This place reminds you of home. The workers are caring and always knowledgeable about what's happening with every resident. Don't be surprised if you see the owners spending the day with patients. Everyone that works here cares for the residents. Loved ones are free to come and visit anytime. My aunt lived there for eight years and I was never disappointed. Even though my aunt is no longer living, she was always happy and I'd recommend Optimum Personal Care to anyone looking for a facility to care for your loved ones when you can longer do it alone.

I'm not 100% sure where I found the other reviews for Unity, but they were enough when combined with my intuition to choose Unity. By the time it came to choosing hospice, my love had already been unable to assist in that choice. I know based on her interactions with nurse Barb & Beverly, that we made a great choice. We felt supported the entire journey. With medications, comfort, supplies, everything. More important, the staff were caring, loving and kind. Even though they must have been exhausted (we're in Galveston) they never let it show. They were nothing but care and love. My love is gone now and they stayed and supported us through texts and more. Im sure if you choose Unity, you will be very happy you did. I know my love is happy we did.
