I urge you to carefully consider this before contracting with any hospice provider. Unfortunately, our experience with Faith & Hope made an already painful situation even harder. In April 2025, my mom suffered a massive stroke. She was placed under Continuous Care (CC), which meant she required critical, around-the-clock nursing support. We were told her case would be re-evaluated after three days. However, the care was stopped in less than 24 hours and we were given only 4 hours' notice that services would be discontinued. At that point, it was clear our needs no longer aligned with Faith & Hope's philosophy of care. We scrambled to hire private help on extremely short notice. That night, my mom was in significant pain & experienced agitation. She needed her medication adjusted and an increase of the dosage frequency to help manage her symptoms. The next day, we made final attempts to Faith & Hope to reassess mom's eligibility for CC, even though the on-call night nurse, when we asked, did acknowledge that we were free to seek another hospice provider. We waited all day for a response from Faith & Hope, but heard nothing. Faced with another evening without adequate care, we transferred my mom to a different hospice. They gave us the right care without hesitation. Sadly, our mom passed away only 4 days later. The only positive experience we had with Faith & Hope was with Nurse Theresa. She cared for my mom with compassion, dedication and a true commitment to patient advocacy. Theresa's thoughtfulness and support helped guide my brothers and me through an incredibly challenging time, and for that we are deeply grateful.

Hard to believe a medical service can be as attentive as a fine dining restaurant, but that is what…read morethis was. We used Five Star for about five days. Medicare and Optum covered the hospice side. I paid separately for 24/7 caregivers through Sincere Care Services, which I chose because I wanted Cantonese and Mandarin speakers so my mother would be more comfortable. Five Star was recommended by the Optum physician on staff. Separately, a family member recommended them too, through a friend whose father had passed the week before. I checked their ratings on Yelp and Google before moving forward, and I am extremely happy with the service we got from start to finish. This is the point where you decide between more hospital intervention, which can be painful, and accepting the situation and moving to hospice. Hospice is the wedding coordinator for a peaceful death. Things can still go wrong even when you plan everything perfectly, but Five Star was there at every step to handle whatever came up. The rough sequence for anyone about to do this: 1. Decide on hospice. 2. Line up caregivers. They are separate from Five Star, but Five Star will point you to good ones. I wanted Chinese-speaking caregivers and Mark made it happen. 3. Coordinate with the hospital on transportation. 4. Be home to receive the supplies. 5. Be home when your loved one arrives. Have a bottle of distilled water ready for the oxygen machine. 6. Have the nurse and the caregiver both there so you can learn the comfort meds. 7. I used 24/7 caregivers on 12-hour shifts. I made a point of being there whenever a new caregiver came on, so I could walk them through the medications and get their phone number. Nurses came once a day to check on my mother since she was close. You do not have to be there the whole time, but I tried to be there for shift changes. One thing I wish I had watched more closely was bowel movements. My mother had been constipated since the hospital because she was not eating. Another tip: put together a playlist of beautiful music to play in the room. Otherwise it is silence, or your loved one is listening to caregivers talk and scroll on their phones. Even when your loved one is not responsive, they are still listening and drifting in and out. Tell them everything will be okay. Thank them for everything they did for you. I think it helps them go peacefully. Anytime I needed something, Mark was a text or a call away and he always answered. Again, they are the wedding coordinators for a loved one's passing, and they will do everything within their power to help you through it.

I am incredibly grateful to Roze Room for the compassionate care they provided to my mother and for…read morethe unwavering support they gave our entire family. Before hospice began, I was managing much of my mother's care on my own. It was overwhelming at times, especially in the periods between doctor appointments when there were so many unknowns and I was doing my best to make the right decisions for someone I loved so deeply. When Roze Room stepped in, they gave me one of the greatest gifts I could have received--they allowed me to be a daughter again instead of a full-time caregiver. I was able to focus on what mattered most: spending meaningful time with my mom. There were so many extraordinary people at Roze Room who cared for us along the way. I am deeply thankful for every one of them--from the nurses who lovingly cared for my mother and comforted our family, including those who remained at her bedside around the clock during her final days; to the physician who spent hours with us in our home answering questions and guiding us; to those who arranged medications and medical supplies to be delivered within hours; to the home health aide who bathed my mother with such gentleness, dignity, and respect; to the spiritual counselor who was always available; and to the bereavement team whose support continued even after my mother's passing. I know there were many others working behind the scenes, and I am grateful for every person who played a part in caring for our family. Of course, none of us wanted to face saying goodbye to my mother. But we all agreed that her passing was as peaceful and beautiful as she would have wanted. She was at home, surrounded by the people who loved her most, and receiving exceptional care. Roze Room was truly a blessing to our family. During one of the most difficult times of our lives, they brought comfort, peace, and dignity to every step of the journey. If you are searching for a hospice provider, let me first say how sorry I am that you are facing this difficult chapter. It is a time filled with uncertainty, fear, heartbreak, and grief. I sincerely hope you find the same peace and comfort that our family did. I wholeheartedly recommend Roze Room. They cared not only for my mother, but for all of us, and I will always be grateful for the compassion, kindness, and dignity they brought into our home during a time when we needed it most.
