My grandmother sadly needed to stay there for 4 days before she departed us. The facility is clean beyond belief. They worked on it every moment of every day. The staff took such good care of my grandmother. They continuously checked in on her to make sure she was comfortable and also rotated her and kept her clean. I have heard so many horror stories of facilities that just kept their patients drugged. Here, the continuously checked her need for medicine. The facility also cared for my entire family. They made sure we were okay and spoke to us in such a caring manner. They helped to keep us fed, comfortable, and sane during this horrible time. They had things to keep my children busy both inside and outside. I also thought the chapel was a calming place. The procession the staff shared in with my family as my grandmothers body was taken will be engrained in my memory. The staff really helped make this situation easier on all of us.

Amita Hospice was incredibly kind and helpful to my father in his last weeks. The people working…read morefor them were very caring and knowledgeable, and I believe they made a big difference in the last weeks my father spent on this earth. They visited him every day and talked with him. They also spoke with the staff, so he would no longer be carted off too the hospital each time his condition got a little worse. He was 92, had serious dementia and trips to the hospital were both terrifying and pointless. Hospice made him comfortable, made sure he had strong pain meds when necessary and could be in familiar surroundings. They let me know when they thought he was living his last few days, which was nice. Their services really made his passing peaceful.

Their whole demeanor and attitude is that of angels, compassion, empathy, love..When he was in the hospital, he was not receiving the proper pain management, they kept delaying the hospitals hospice program while my dad was dying in pain. I was desperate to get him home. Alena, the administrator, moved mountains to make that happen. They got my dad home in less than 18 hours, they were by my father's bedside within two hours of me calling desperate for help, which felt like a miracle during such a difficult time. Daniel, the nurse who came to the hospital, was so attentive and caring such a such a genuine person. And once we were home, nurse Julie and nurse Grace took over and truly went above and beyond. They made sure the bed oxygen tanks supplies and meds was delivered before my dad even got home.They made sure my dad was comfortable, out of pain, and surrounded by dignity and respect--something he was not receiving in the hospital. there was also a Sweet CNA that came to help as well, Because of them, my dad was able to pass peacefully at home, just as he deserved. That means everything to me my father and our family. All of my father's friends and loyal family were able to come visit with him before he passed the next morning.. I highly recommend this hospice agency to anyone going through end-of-life care for a loved one--or even for themselves. Don't wait until the last minute. Have this hospice team set up ahead of time--you will not regret it. They are truly angels doing God's work. Shannon Johnson-parson

My family decided that my Dad required hospice care towards the end of his life and we chose…read moreLifeChoice for that need. We were assigned Emily as our case manager and she was great to work with. However, we interacted the most with Grace who was on-call at the time we engaged them and helped my Dad a good bit during his last couple of days. Grace was super patient with us when we asked lots of questions about his care and hospice in general. LifeChoice also provided a rabbi for us and I think my father really appreciated that the rabbi visited with him for over an hour. I think they provided my father a lot of peace and comfort during his final days. My only regret was not engaging them sooner. Thank you LifeChoice for all of the help you provided my father and our family.

It lists the Hoffman Estates location all over the website. I found out that's an administrative office location and not a facility. It is not labelled as their office.

We went Wednesday and nursing home said she was already there. We went first thing in the morning Thursday so we would be there. She never showed up.

Our family member was kept clean and comfortable with dignity at front of mind. We shared feedback regarding the weekend doctors communication being highly misleading/confusing for our family, due to coming in so early, saying so little, and focusing on what he thought we wanted to hear instead of what we needed to know (what's best for the patient). The other challenge we faced was related to the Home care side of the business systems not talking to the in-facility side of the business, so we had to repeat information such as funeral home. The worst fall-through with that was receiving a call from the home team to schedule equipment pickup while we were still in hospice, before a death....
