My wife has Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC) - Stage IV, Metastatic, Aggressive. Like 90% of IBC…read morepatients, the IBC was already Stage IV when it was diagnosed. We opted for the hospice option because it was already spreading around her body. Life Choice Hospice has been there for us with a caring and professional intake session the morning after we contacted them through their website. That evening, Life Choice had delivered the equipment that my wife would need and started transitioning her to her new medications. We have a core care team of three. The names I have been using for them on our CaringBridge page are: The Amazing Nurse Julie (the primary caregiver who expertly changes the tumor's dressing and provides on-point answers, advice and support for both of us three times a week), The Fabulous Jessica (social worker whose visits, calm assurances, and insightful suggestions are truly priceless), and Stephanie the Magnificent (our Certified Nursing Assistant - because like a magician, she can turn my wife's soiled bed linens into clean ones really fast without my wife ever having to leave the comfort of the bed). When my wife woke up in pain at 2 am, we called the Life Choice Hospice 24-hour line, expecting to get an AI or an answering service. A Nurse Practitioner (NP) answered, (yes, a real person), and had the on-call person here in less time than we usually had to wait in an Emergency Room. The on-call (I forget if they were LPN or NP) was professional, caring, understanding, competent, and thorough who took care of her and did not leave until she and I both understood what was going on, why, what they were going to do about it, and what I had to do and watch for as they change her medication dosage and frequency to adapt to her increasing pain levels. We have needed the Life Choice 24-hour services at other odd hours between 11 pm and 4 am, and, while the NP on the phone and the LPN or NP that showed up were different, the pattern of professionalism, care, concern, and thoroughness was the same. When she noticed that I was getting overwhelmed with caring for my wife, The Fabulous Jessica suggested a "respite" meaning that my wife could visit a 24/7 care facility for 5 days to give us both a break. I did not know such a thing existed or could be so beneficial and timely. All three of my wife's core care team continued to care for her while she was in the 24/7 care facility. Life Choice had already contracted with a service award-winning facility, arranged transportation, got my wife settled in there, provided continuity of care by keeping their previous schedule, and coordinated the care my wife received from the 24/7 facility when Life Choice was not there. If you could use the help of a caring, competent, and understanding team of medical professionals like this, please contact Life Choice Hospice and Palliative Care. They accepted both my insurance from work and Jean's Medicare Part A.

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.

If I could give this place no stars, I would. My father was a WWII vet and died in pain because…read morethey refused to give him more medication. Also the nurse who should have been coming out every day when she knew he was close to dying decided that wasn't necessary. This place was never good to begin with. Nurses were incompetent (overworked too which wasn't there fault.). VA paid this place an tremendous amount of money each day but you'd never know it by the level of care my father received. We'd ask for supplies and we were told they were sent when they actually weren't. If the VA recommends this place, ask for another one. No compassion whatsoever from an organization who is in the business of caring for people. The CEO and nursing staff should be ashamed of themselves. I have also filed a complaint with IDPH.

First-time reviewer, I try to see the positivity in every situation, but this is something that…read moreneeds to be said; especially for families encountering this sensitive and very difficult period in their lives. Apex Hospice has exhibited an extreme lack of communication and total loss of empathy. In my encounter with Apex, my friend who had requested and filed forms to avoid another hospital stay was transported to the ER because the on-call nurse for Apex "was 60 miles away, so what do you want me to do". After bringing this to Apex's attention we had hoped for better care; we were let down. My friend was taken off of vitamins that he asked to continue on because "are they really necessary right now"? He also had his caregiver turned away from buying groceries because their nurse hid his wallet and did not want to tell him where it was; like it was a game to her. My friend had oxygen delivered to his home, to increase his current amount, their nurse did not hook him up to the appropriate (and prescribed) oxygen concentrator for two full days because she did not feel it mattered. Further, after the request of my friend and his family to NOT be removed from his home, Apex tried diligently to place him in a rehab center so that they could allow themselves time to get a nurse; they contract their nurses from other agencies. It is appalling to me that in a profession such as Hospice Care, a company could treat someone who is actively dying with a lack of respect, dignity, or compassion. As previously stated, we did try to bring this to the attention of their Director as well as the nurses and Case Managers that we encountered. However, we saw no improvement. Lastly, when I called to see if the nurse had been made aware that he passed, and to see what the next steps were, this was the response I received: "I know that he expired, I am going to be there when I can get there.(then hung up)" I hope, sincerely, that these individuals receive better care should they ever need it.
