    Kind, caring and experienced. Very responsive. They were so instrumental in supporting my mom and…read moreI. Thank you so much Buena Vista!

    During the pandemic, my mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. It progressed quickly, and I was left…read moreto care for her on my own after my dad died from cancer in 2022. Buena Vista was recommended by her geriatric doctor at Kaiser, who told me that their care was better than that provided by her own employer. I took her word for it and scheduled my appointment with them. She was accepted quickly, and from February 2024 through September 2025, she was in their care, providing several visits to my home per week. There were some bumps in the road, which accounts for four stars instead of five (mainly due to under- or constantly revolving staffing and an original social worker who should be in an academic line of work, rather than a public-facing one), but overall, it was a positive experience and I would recommend BVH to anyone in need of such care for their loved one(s). I would have been doomed without the medications and supplies provided by BVH. Having to navigate her care by myself was more difficult than I can put into words-- you never imagine having to wipe down walls that have been finger-painted by the feces of a 70-year-old, or carrying the dead weight of a 120-pound woman from a bathroom to a chair because she's forgotten how to use her legs. Her social worker (Marci) stayed with me on the phone while I vented and cried, and offered warm words of kindness. The volunteer coordinator (Kellie) gave me friendship when my world had dwindled down to nothing but centring around my mom and her constant supervision. My second volunteer, Jacky, was amazing. We formed a friendship and still text each other weekly. Unfortunately, because my mom remained on hospice for more than the typical length of time (3 months), due to her condition, she cycled through a handful of nurses, but we ended up with the nurse we liked the most, after she came back from maternity leave. Karen is one of the sweetest people I have ever met in my life, and she always showed what felt like genuine care and concern for my mom, as well as myself. Estephany was a godsend. I feel that the most underappreciated "angels" of hospice are without a doubt the bathing assistants. They have to put up with tantrums, screaming, crying, and general awkwardness of showering and dressing injured and elderly people who are scared, confused, and sometimes violent. She felt like a friend to me in the time she was with us, and I looked forward to her visits. She was so good with my mom. I'm starting to cry as I type this because she had to endure the same weird ramblings and repeated questions three times a week, every week for over a year, and always did so with a smile. She treated my mom like a human being, with love and respect. That is probably my biggest takeaway from my experience with Buena Vista-- they allowed my mom, who suffered through this tragic disease, to spend the last leg of her life with DIGNITY, which is in short supply for the addled and elderly, trapped in their failing bodies and minds that betray them. Thank you to everyone at BVH who helped us during this dark time. Your generosity will never be forgotten.

These hospice nurses however, are the kindest, most gentle, and loving people I have ever met. Mark, Jhewel, and Carmelita were ALWAYS there when I needed them. Whenever I called, a real person ALWAYS answered-even on the weekends, after hours, whenever! Honestly, hand to heart, these people are angels on earth and I feel incredibly blessed that my mom and I were able to experience such love and kindness during her last days.

The owner worked with our budget and we moved my father in. He was there for 5 months until he passed away (from August 2014 to January 2015). The staff was EXCELLENT and I really mean EXCELLENT. There was enough caretakers on hand to help with the people that were living there. My Dad was extremely well taken care of. When the social workers came out to check on him, they even indicated that he was in good hands and was being well taken care of. If you are new in finding a place for an elderly who needs round the clock care, be careful of the big private companies. There is 1 caretaker for about 10 or more people. This is bad news because I've seen and heard of people getting hurt and major damage occurring where the clean up and repair doesn't come for hours at a time. I highly recommend this place. Your loved one will be in good hands-- from the owner to the caretakers. They wear there hearts on their sleeves and take great care of the elderlies.

They remained there right up until the very end and even after my loved ones passed away. Through an extremely trying moment, their personnel continued to exhibit the most compassion and delicacy around a very difficult time. My family and I are extremely grateful with their team of doctors and nurses for the kind, loving and caring treatment. Because of all the dignity retained in the final stages of my father's life, I can confidently state that my dad can rest in peace in paradise. While not everyone would find this ideal, given that this is a part of life, I highly recommend this hospice for your families needs.

I had many questions and often called several times a week or even a day. The staff was always completely helpful and courteous, never making me feel like I was being a pain and always getting me answers right away. They were always on top of my mother in law's needs and increased visits any time something was a concern. Beyond that, when I had concerns about her health they would send out a nurse, often within the hour, to check on her and report back to me. Nino was incredible helpful and would get back to me immediately every time I called. It was such a reassurance during a very difficult time. Jason was the nurse who would visit, often three times a week. Knowing I wanted more detailed information than most people, he would send me pictures of his reports, text me every time he visited, call when things were more complicated, and always stoped to talk when he saw me visiting, even if it wasn't his day to see her. He became a confidant and someone I felt truly comfortable asking the hard questions. He really treated my mother in law like family and always showed her respect, even when he came the day she passed to declare time of death. Without any hesitation, I would recommend Blue Butterfly to a friend. They are professional, caring, and reliable. They saved us thousands of dollars and so much stress.

I've made a huge mistake, chose and agency that owned by a friend of a friend who I know, and had a nightmare for 5 full days ( the only easy part was a sign up), other than that, I felt that for them my Mom is a "piece" to make money with. Thankfully, I've been referred to Alexandra ( at that time I didn't even knew the name of the agency). From the first conversation with her that took an hour and she wanted to know everything about my mom, her situation and about our family, I felt very comfortable, I felt that she cares about people who gets under her care. I've decided to make a transfer from the "nightmare agency " to her. And it's been the best decision I've made. Transfer was very smooth and easy , she answered every phone call and text, was concerned about every single detail. When the transfer was completed, I had nurse coming to the house within an hour. He spent a good 40 min with me and mom, making sure he didn't miss anything about her health and condition. Next day, I had everyone on my mom team calling me, and with every single person I came in contact with, it was very easy to communicate, I felt warmth and compassion. Every question and concern I had was addressed. I called Alexandra and told her that, and thank her for having such an incredible team. And I came into a peace myself, feeling that I don't have to frustrated anymore with getting help, and can concentrate on spending my time with mom. I'm a business owner my self working directly with clients, and always believing that yes we are in business to make a living, but your client or patient come first. And that is what I'm experiencing so far with Alexandra and her team.
