We used Heartland Hospice for my mother's care. She died in the early morning hours. Before she…read morepassed I called the on-call number 3 separate times!! The nurse called me back and said she'd be out the next morning. 3 times I called! She never came out! She had the audacity to tell me that my mom was not going to die. I kept telling her that things were different. They didn't make her last days comfortable. They made them miserable!!! Oh, if I had a do-over!! But that's something I have to live with. The on-call nurse should be fired. Worthless! Am I angry? Yes!! I hope the on-call nurse dies the same way she let my mother die. No compassion.

My father was dying from cancer and needed to get home ASAP. They kept trying to put off the start…read moreof hospice care by a day, and it took hours of fighting them over the span of two days to get him home the day initially promised. Deb, the intake nurse, was AWFUL. She treated my dad worse than a piece of furniture. She talked to him and knew that he was conscious. But she left him completely bare from the waist down, then went out to her car for a catheter, and left him there struggling to cover himself. Once she got him set up, she kept noting how agitated he was, and we told her that he was afraid, so she decided to sit a few feet from him and loudly and graphically described how she thought his death would progress. He heard everything. She estimated he'd last three days, but she absolutely broke him. He died about an hour after she left. I think she was the on call nurse, and she ignored our calls as we tried to get help to make things easier for my dad. Everyone from Heartland who came after he died was fantastic, but at that point, who cares?

Beacon of Hope Hospice is a smaller hospice that makes each patient its number one priority. The…read moreequipment came the same morning we admitted my dad. It was a blessing to have the medications, equipment, and all the care given by Beacon of Hope at no charge to my father or to us as a family. We liked that we could call their number at any time and that a nurse answered the phone after hours and that a nurse was always available to us. We also liked that we had the same staff - same nurse visiting during the week, same CNA so that dad didn't have to get used to a new one, same chaplain, same social worker, and same Veteran volunteer. The whole staff is friendly, caring, and compassionate. The last week of life for my father, the whole team showed up daily (each for 1-2 hours) to spend time with dad and all of us. Also, after his passing, the phone calls, mailings, and continual contact with our family has meant a lot!

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.
