My family member was in Gentiva Hospice care and the experience was terrible. The initial contact went well and we felt that we had made a good choice in moving forward with Gentiva. The good feelings went away immediately. My family member was not able to receive the pain meds that were prescribed and experienced horrible pain. Gentiva blamed the local pharmacy and my family member only received meds after several calls to the nurse line, director, and sales person. The weekend "nurse" was obnoxious, extremely unpleasant and had the audacity to show attitude when questions were asked. She fell right in line with blame everyone but Gentiva. Finally, the supplies my family member needed were ordered via mail order, and were received 7 days after they were ordered and a day after he passed away. Overall, this entity does not provide compassionate end of life care. Instead, they provide cruelty care. Save your self from feeling guilty about the choice you made and heartache. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! read more
