My mother passed in the McGraw Center for Caring and had a wonderful experience. Even though she…read moreknew she was passing, it was the place she wanted to be. She thought her room was beautiful and that it felt like home. I liked that it was a dedicated facility, not a hospice floor in a larger hospital. She liked touring the pathways and looking at the plants and flowers as we pushed her in her wheel chair. The staff is very caring and went out of their way to ensure we and my mother were supported. I was able to work out of a private meeting room to take business calls and attend meetings while there. After a direct conversation, the kitchen was very accommodating to her unique dietary requests. Highly recommend this facility.

SHE DIDNT CALL ME TO TELL ME. I had to find out late the next day ONLY because a family friend went to go visit him at his assisted living apartment to find he wasn't there. The communication is AWFUL. The only reason I chose Vitas for him was because I was under the impression and it was "sold" to me like they worked together with COMMUNITY HOSPICE, the nonprofit. I would think twice about going w Vitas. The care given was fine but with my experience caregiving, I have worked w COMMUNITY HOSPICE and they know what they're doing MUCH better than Vitas. Highly disappointed in Vitas.

I must say, when I first called and spoke with Shari at Granny Nannies I had no idea what I was…read moredoing or what I needed. After answering all of my questions and concerns I went in to visit their office. Shari and Sandy both are super nice ladies! My stepfather has been in and out of the hospital and rehab facilities since last April 2015, he was being discharged for home and my mother, whom just suffered from a heart attack was the only there to care for him. He is wheelchair bound, with stage 4 ulcers on his back and feet and suffering from moderate Dementia. There was no way she could do it anymore. Getting him home took some time, the hospital would call and say he was being discharged so I would set up times for the caregivers, then the hospital would cancel the discharge. This happened on several occasions, I finally broke down with Shari on the phone because I was once again cancelling their services. Finally, he made it home, his first caregiver was Robin, mom fell in love with her. She and all the rest of the people have been so understanding and loving towards my parents, we couldn't ask for better people to look after them. Currently, their services are being used 24/7 with two shifts a day. The best thing is my mom feels comfortable around them, several have even offered or cooked their meals for them. As this is a difficult situation that will ultimately end with Hospice Care I cannot say enough wonderful things about how Granny Nannies has treated our family. I will definitely remember them if the need ever arises again and would recommend their services to anyone. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

We have had a wonderful experience with Granny Nannies in Jacksonville, Florida. For the last…read moreseveral months, they have been providing home health care and personal assistance to my elderly step-mother with major health problems, and more recently to my elderly father as well. We have been extremely pleased both with their office staff and the in-home caregivers. Sandy and her office staff have been remarkably helpful, responsive, and patient in dealing with occasional last-minute schedule changes, and have also been a huge help in advocating for our needs with the long-term care insurance company when the insurance company tried to waffle about the level of care and the percentage of the costs they would pay. In the home, both Felicia and Chastity have been hardworking, trustworthy, and eternally patient in dealing with the demands of caring for very elderly, and often demanding patients. We recommend Granny Nannies without any reservations whatsoever.

My mom was in rehab and I begin looking for smith place for her to go after her discharge. I called and Danny the son's owner went to the rehab the same day to visit my mother to see if she was a good fit for the assisted living in their facility. She was being discharged and again he went to to do a final assessment and we both agree that this was a good fit. She has been there for about 4 months now and loves the place. They are taking great care of her and she is very happy.

My mother was in a skilled nursing facility under palliative care and the option was made available…read moreto have Community Hospice care workers come in and assist with her care. She would stay in the facility, but Doctors, RNs, LPNs,Social Workers, and Chaplains would all come into the facility to see her and provide extra care. This was covered by her insurance so I did not see any down side to this. In fact, it turned out to be one of the best decisions I could have made. My mother lived for about another month and the care and communication from the Community Hospice personnel was top notch; they were all so helpful and considerate. These are truly caring people to assist with your loved ones. All were so helpful and nice but a few special words of praise for Shantrel (RN), Debbie (Social Services), and Grant (Chaplain). Thanks, Mike

I thought Hospice and Pallative Care was good until now. My mom, 81 years old, has Alzheimer's…read more She lives with me. I hired Community because I needed some relief. Below are the reasons for the 1 star review. I would give them a 0 if I could. 1) Emergency call one night because a rash was caused by the non rinse body wash they gave. Nurse came from St Augustine, said "I have a bad back and I am not going to work this hard. Next time you will have to wait for someone from Jacksonville or Orange Park." Nurse stated no problems with the wash before. 2) Another Emergency call to hotline. Swollen ankles, can't walk. Nurse called with ETA from Orange Park - 1.5 hours. She showed 3 hours later. RN: Sorry. 3) Person they sent to help with bathing tracked mud throughout my home. When I told her that she had mud on her shoes she didn't take them off. I asked her to take them off. She said, "well as long as you don't mind me not having shoes on." I cleaned up the mess she made and she never helped me. 4) RN came to get help get Mom on Community's unit at Baptist South for Respite care. Tested negative for Covid that day. Asked me why didn't I speak with the Social worker first? I explained to her that I had never spoken with or seen mom's social worker. The Sw that came for the 1st visit wasn't her SW. Then I found out that she had gone to a locked unit to visit my mother without notifying me first. 5) RN told me to not take anything with me to Baptist South for Respite care. "they have everything you need. You will need to feed her prior to going because dinner will be over." I took her items anyway and I did feed her. I have a video of her in the room when we arrived laughing, walking around, and talking to me. Baptist South Nurse came into the room and said, "I see you brought some of her things." Me: "Yes, I am sorry if it is against the rules. Also, I have fed her." Nurse: "Who told you that?" We welcome her belongings. This is her room. We have her dinner tray if she is still hungry." Me: "I see you have the no rinse wash. She is allergic to it." RN: We have had a lot of people have reactions to it." RN: "why is she here?" Me: "Respite care. I think she has a UTI and she is scratching a lot." RN: "ok well we will treat both of those and cut her fingernails. She will have the right meds when she leaves here." The next day I showed up in the afternoon to bring her robe, thinking she would be walking around and need it. A new nurse was in her room and the room was completely dark. My mother had a round red mark on her cheek. Me: "What happened to my mom's face?" RN: "She's been sleeping on that side." Me: "for how long?" RN: "Since you dropped her off." Me: "what did she eat today? Drink?" RN: "She's had nothing since you dropped her off." Me: "What about treating her for the UTI and scratching?" RN: "There was nothing in report about any of that." Me: "What did you give her?" RN: Morphine, Haldol and Seroquel." Me: " You do realize that she is in here for Pallative care and not end of life?" RN: "let me read the notes." I was able to wake my mom up by using cold water. I gave her food and drinks. The next day I went to get her out (she was supposed to stay 5 days). She was knocked out again. Once again cold water woke her up. I called the RN and told them I was taking her home. She couldn't walk and was talking gibberish. I fed her and let her nap. She then tested positive for COVID. I revoked the contract with community. When she was in the hospital for COVID I received a call from them asking for a second chance which I replied, Never. You almost killed her.
