Unique Hospice has been wonderful from the moment I called them to the death of my mother and after. Vanessa who answered the phone answered all my questions and got back to me in a timely fashion. She didn't miss a thing and once we were signed up I felt great relief knowing I had this company on board to walk me through this process. I called on a Monday, the nurse Amanda came to assess mom that afternoon and we had approval for services within an hour. By the next morning all sorts of equipment was delivered; it was amazing how quickly they worked. The next day Juliet the RN came and checked out mom. Both nurses were so kind and gentle with my mom. Juliet went over the transitioning signs and other information that was very helpful to me in knowing what to expect. She spent a lot of time with me, I never felt rushed; Juliet's care was genuine. Communication was top notch; I received text notifications every time Juliet was going to come by. Both Juliet and Joyce the social worker arrived within minutes of my mom transitioning and it was so comforting to have them here. I had interviewed other hospice companies in the past and while the people I met with were nice, they felt a bit fake. I did not feel this way about Unique Hospice. Their attention and care is real and very respectful. I highly recommend Unique Hospice to walk through this difficult time with you. Thank you Vanessa for your excellent immediate communication and support with questions that I had. Thank you Joyce for your attention and compassion and for talking me through this grieving process. Thank you Juliet for being here for me and my mom. I am thankful for you and your knowledge and kindness. read more

Unique has a special place in my heart. Their compassion and knowledge is what sets them aside from all the other hospice companies. They care for my aunt during her last few months of her life and they were nothing short of amazing. Very responsive and extremely helpful during the difficult time. Dani is so knowledgeable and made the process much easier read more

I have used a couple other hospice companies with other family members. Unique Hospice stands out the best from my first call to Vanessa made me feel very comfortable and I knew right away. I made the right decision from the first visit with Ness was absolutely wonderful when I saw her how she treated my loved one as family and the compassion she had for her Jen was awesome also. Joyce the social worker always checked in and made sure we were doing OK but also checked in with our loved one that was dying of cancer these women are a great team. They made my loved one feel very comfortable and felt like family. We were treated the same. I would highly recommend this company to anyone that's going through the tough time of losing a loved one read more

Recently had a family member placed under hospice care with this company. It was a new experience, so didn't really know what to expect. For the most part things went well, when we needed items to be replenished they did so with a bit of pushback at times but we received them promptly nonetheless. The care from the home health aide and LVN were for the most part great, no complaints there! Thorough and helpful by nature. One concern was the RN that made it a habit on more then one occasion to have my family member clean out their own ostomy bag even though my family member was bed bound and would not be able to properly clean their hands afterwards. I will be reporting said nurse to the appropriate agency. Only other disappointment was after my family members passing, no real attempt was made by their counselor or staff to help with the grieving process which seemed like such a harsh disconnection. read more

Nurses and Aides that come to assist are wonderful. The problem was discharge and office staff. I felt we were kicked to the curb. On Xmas eve, I received a call that my mom was being discharged from Hospice. A few days later, a received a text, saying they will be picking up their bed, hoyer lift, and all equipment inn 2 weeks and that I had better start working on finding a replacement bed ! The supplies and meds stopped and I had to ask multiple times to receive them. No nurse came to visit either during the week of Xmas. I was promised they would help with transitioning from Hospice care, that didn't happen. The Home Health Agency they gave me the number to, never heard of my mom's name and said they didn't help with obtaining any equipment needed. In the end, after complaining to the owner, I did receive meds and a bulk of supplies right before discharge. The owner did offer to comp me the medical equipment for 2 more weeks to allow me to get our own. The damage was done though. My trust was gone. My stress level was off the charts. I had to obtain everything on my own, including the Home Health Agency that would help. I am wiser now and will not be calling them when my mom declines again. read more

Unique Hospice was wonderful. I prefer not to share much personal information online, so I won't go into detail. I will say that we had a TERRIBLE experience with a different Hospice company before we switched to Unique Hospice. Be very careful about which company you choose. Do your homework and advocate for your loved one. The staff at Unique treated our family like their own family. We are so were grateful to have found them in our time of need. read more

I was so fortunate to have Unique Hospice care for my sister at the end of her life. From the first phone call with Vanessa I felt supported. Anytime I called, Vanessa or Aimee were there for me. Nurses Vanessa and Jennifer would visit often and Jeni, the bathing aide, would give a bed bath twice a week. It made me smile that she would hunt for the prettiest and most colorful linens and blankets when changing the bed. I also had the support of Joyce, the wonderful social worker who helped me when I needed advice and emotional support. Everyone I dealt with was kind, caring and compassionate. When having to make the decision, I originally was trying to make arrangements with Kaiser Hospice but they took so long to get back to me that I went with Unique Hospice instead. From what I later learned I am so grateful things turned out as they did. I've since heard complaints about Kaiser Hospice. If you are seeking great care for yourself or a loved one I highly recommend Unique Hospice. read more

My father was admitted to Unique Hospice after an 8 month battle with cancer. From the first call to the final call, the hospice team was professional, compassionate, responsive, and empathetic. I can't say anything negative or wish for anything to be different. Each discipline spent as much time as my family needed with each visit. There was transparency but with respect and compassion. my father's doctor was quick to recommend his preferred hospice but I was putting my father's life in the agency's hand so it was not going to be just any agency. unique is professional and thorough and I can't say enough about the team. The office staff was also kind and compassionate as well. My family never felt they were bothering anyone. I am truly grateful for each person who provided services to my father. He died comfortable and peaceful surrounded by his loved ones and this could not have been possible without the guidance, care, and support from the team as Unique. read more

I cannot express my gratitude enough for the exceptional care that Unique Hospice provided to my loved one during their final days. The team of nurses and staff were all incredibly kind, compassionate, and dedicated to ensuring that my loved one was comfortable and well-cared for.

Their level of care exceeded all of our expectations, and I truly cannot thank them enough for their kindness, patience, and professionalism.

Thank you, Unique Hospice, for everything that you did for my family and my loved one. You made a difficult time a little bit easier, and we are forever grateful. read more

Choosing hospice care is a big family decision. So glad we opted for Unique Hospice. The operation is based locally and when you call for assistance, you get familiar voices on the phone. (You're not dialing into a massive call center.) Staff is consistently professional, courteous and prompt with delivery of equipment, meds, services, etc. And so many kind, professional staff members (explaining medications, procedures during high stress times--even when they were shorthanded). Addi and Carmina, among so many others, were amazing. By the time a family needs hospice care, you've likely been in a medical maze for months if not years. As a family you're exhausted and need efficient, consistent, dependable care and services. Our family is so thankful for the care and services we received from Unique Hospice. read more

Unique Hospice is truly special. They go above and beyond the Medicare requirements, and work with each patient's particular needs and comfort in their last days.

They understand our limitations and support us in providing the BEST and necessary care for our residents. read more

Hospice care is a difficult and complicated journey for the patient and their loved ones. All the staff that we had the opportunity to work with from Unique when our family member was in their care, ensured that this journey would be handled with compassion and empathy. We were kept informed every step of the way, answered all questions and made sure that everyone involved in the care of our family member was clear about the process and consulted us when changes to care were required. They took the time to make sure that our family member was listened to and that they understood what was going on. Unique helped make a difficult and complicated journey as easy as possible, and for that we will always be grateful. The staff are all incredibly kind and we could not have asked for better care. Thank you. read more

Unique Hospice took care of my grandma, providing the best comfort for her before her last days with us. Our nurse, Cassandra, was very knowledgeable, skilled and professional in what she does and I can tell how passionate she is in providing the best care to my grandma. She made the entire family confident that my grandma is receiving the proper care when she only had a few days left of life expectancy left. She also calmed us down and told us that there are no "what if's" to change anything besides having to accept it and have my grandma die peacefully. It is heartbreaking to lose someone who served as your role model, but seeing them suffer is even more painful. Nevertheless, I was relieved that she passed away gracefully at home with her family surrounding her after she received care from Unique Hospice. read more

I'm sure in the field you are in, you frequently receive letters thanking you for the services you provide during the terrible times that hospice services usually entail. We are coming up on one year since my grandmother passed, and while the grief still lingers, what does also is the gratitude that we had a hospice service such as yours to help us through it. I wanted to thank you and your staff for the care that you provided, as it helped to ease both my grandmother and my and my family's minds during this time. We did not have to worry that she would be uncomfortable, and that itself is a huge burden off the shoulders in an incredibly difficult situation. You provide a service that is not often considered until demanded by necessity. Thank you for treating your patients with the care and respect that you do. You have my most sincere appreciation. Thank you! read more

The office staff was always there with all my questions and concerns I had regarding my mom. They were so patient and kind every time I called and it never made me feel like a bother. They always had the answer or would get back to me if research was required. I would like to thank the nurses for the visits and the weekly reports on her condition in a professional, yet cheerful manner. Recently a nurse notified me of a "change in condition" in my mom's health. During a visit I noticed she appeared to be struggling and in pain. Under hospice care, my mom was given pain medication immediately which helped her considerably. I am so grateful for the services you provided, the positive interactions we had, and all the people behind the scenes. She would not have left this earth as gently as she did without Unique Hospice. read more

Unique Hospice and Palliative Care is beyond 5 stars! This agency was an absolute blessed foundation that supported my family and I thru our most difficult and vulnerable times, not once but three times for that matter; with my father twice (Palliative and Hospice) and my grandfather (Hospice). As a healthcare provider, it was even more so to have to met/exceed my clinical expectations. The entire staff was on point, and professional with their genuine caring hearts. My family and I would not of been able to deal with the sensitive health circumstances and family affairs without Unique Hospice's support. Unique Hospice will forever be our extended family.

As a former hospice home care nurse skilled in pain management, I was very surprised and lucky to find Unique Hospice. Their nurses are very well trained with excellent clinical experiences. The nurse practitioner Doris is director, of nursing on top of every detail with the goal of making sure Unique's services contribute to my quality of life and dignity. They contract with a pharmacy that delivers. Nurses are on-call 24/7. The medical director focuses on palliative care and hospice. He also makes house calls! Unique offers support and therapy with a licensed MSW for myself and my family. They draw from a pool of volunteers, music therapy, services that focus on quality of life.

My grandmother was in and out of the hospital and rehabs for more than a year. She has severe dementia and kidney failure. Unique Hospice offered to care for her at home and since then she has not had to go to the hospital.

It was such a burden on our family before but we can finally rest easy. I highly recommend Unique Hospice. read more

When my 93-year-old grandfather had a major stroke, I was blindsided by all of the responsibilities that suddenly befell me. After a terrible experience with another local hospice, Unique was recommended to me. I will admit I was wary about the amount of support I would receive, but I couldn't have felt more comfortable with the team that was assigned to us. They made it clear they were going to be available to us at any time of the day. I was pleased with the nursing care that was provided. The nurses were gentle, compassionate and reliable. The owner is involved in the business and obviously cares about his delivery of service. My grandfather was treated with dignity while he was alive, but his body was also treated with respect in death. Regardless of the fact that we did both catch covid, the nurses showed up for their daily check ins with full PPE. The social worker is invested in what she does for the company. I love family owned businesses like this and I cannot say enough good things about Unique. If you choose any other hospice you are making a mistake! I will always recommend them with the highest honors- thank you so much! :)) read more

I don't have enough words to say about the care my grandmother received from Unique hospice. I'm someone that has a question for everything and with each question I was greeted with love any care. My grandmother was under their hospice care for 5 months and I'm forever grateful for each of the staff that worked with my grandmother. Jeni gave the best bed baths to my grandmother. She was so patient and caring not to mention the sweetest lady. Stacie and Cassandra, the two Lvn's that worked with my grandmother revived so many calls from me. I never once felt like a bother. They both were always so loving and willing to go the extra mile to make sure my grandmother was taken care of. During my grandmothers last breaths Stacie even stayed by my side so I wouldn't be alone. Adi, the NP was already willing to take my questions. I often would want to process the choices I was making with her. She always took her time with me to make sure I was making the most informed choice I could. And Aberham, the owner of the company, checked in with me often to make sure we had everything we needed. The last days before my grandmother passed I didn't want to leave her side. I was brought a recliner to sleep in right next to her. I'm forever grateful for each of the staff at Unique. All of these people become family in a time I felt so alone. So grateful for each of them! read more

Unique Hospice has been excellent from the day I contacted them till the day my mother passed away. They were highly recommended and they surpassed my expectations. The office staff, nurses and social worker are professional, knowledgeable, caring, and available anytime of the day or night.

Can't say enough about the tremendous care my mother-in-law received from the wonderful people at Unique Hospice - especially my contact Avraham. They are smart, professional, kind and proactive. I never had to nudge them as they were always a step ahead of me in anticipating her needs. Having them for advice in end-of-life issues was invaluable. Hospice is a godsend and in this day and age of subpar healthcare I almost don't get it. Having Unique Hospice as part of our team was like having doctors who make house calls!! They made all the decisions about the equipment my MIL required and it magically appeared within a day. Avraham is a superb communicator and he and Doris (the fantastic nurse) were constantly e-mailing (my preferred means of communication) to update me. And I'd walk in and find their on-site medical staff lovingly bathing and caring for my MIL as though for a family member. Not only were they the ones to notice medical issues that I did not, Avraham was actually the person who called me at 3 a.m. to let me know my MIL had passed. And he apologized to ME for waking me up. I will never forget their kindness and I heartily recommend this company if you require hospice for yourself or a loved one. read more

Unique hospice has been nothing but exceptional in the last days of my grandfather. They transitioned him back to his home quickly from the miserable nursing home he was in. Their staff was sensitive, followed through on every step, communicated, and took great care of him at his time of need. I want to share my appreciation for this truly unique establishment. If anyone is looking for a special place to care for their loved ones, look no further. read more

Unique Hospice had taken care of my uncle last year in 2019. I could not have had a better group to care for him before he had passed. I would highly recommend unique hospice to be there for your loved one. May god bless your loved one. read more

i was searching for a hospice for my 92 years old mom who has severe dementia. i spent a lot of time reading about different companies who provide service in the san gabriel valley area. after picking 3, i started the interviewing process. i was so impressed with vanessa on the phone, who tirelessly answered all my questions, and set up the NP visit at my home promptly. my husband and i were even more impressed with the professionalism and warmth NP adi who did a quick, but thorough check up on my mother, i decided to sign with them immediately. the following day, the visiting RN geo performed the routine check up; he was a kind, gentle young man who made my mom so comfortable, she had no problem cooperating! it has been 9 days since we signed up with unique hospice service. we also found and moved mom into an assistant living home with unique's help. i was in constant communications with them every day, including weekends. everyone was always professional, pleasant and a problem solver. i am so pleased with the nurse, geo, i request that he would be assigned to take care of mom on the 3 weekly visits at the assistant living! unique hospice and all the people working there were real angles to me and my family during this most difficult time dealing with the last days of mom. they made me feel at peace, because i know mom is in great care! thank you! read more

I wanted to update my review since my dad passed away a few weeks ago. I'm so glad our family chose Unique. Although I don't think death is ever easy, my dad's death was as peaceful as I think it could be. The nurses were exactly right about how much pain medication was needed to ensure that my dad was comfortable all the way until the end. The staff really know what they are doing, and they truly care. Special thanks to Alex, Cassandra, Stacie, Addie and the other nurses for their excellent care. Many thanks to Jeni for showering Dad and giving him the most gentle and refreshing bed baths (including shampoos!) during those last days when he was so weak. Thanks to the music therapist, Evan Reiss, who came to sing and play a special accompaniment on the guitar for one of Dad's favorite WWII songs, the day before Dad died. Thanks to Joyce, the social worker, who was with us through our joys and sorrows, and who helped prepare us emotionally for Dad's passing. Joyce helped me to see the beauty of the time I had with Dad until the end. I'm so grateful to all the staff at Unique. They are the best. read more

I am so grateful for enrolling my grandfather under Hospice with Unique Hospice and Palliative Care. He was able to spend the last few months of his life at home with his family without having to go to the ER or Hospital. Unique Hospice's team were able to show up at his house regardless of the time day or night. They provided him with all the medications, supplies and equipments. They understand urgency and know exactly how to provide care for someone with terminal illness. I'm grateful for everything that was done for my entire family by their Nurses, Hospice Aid, Social Worker and Chaplin. Compassionate beyond words! read more

Top notch customer service from sales, Melissa. She was quick to respond and gave me the ABC's of hospice for my uncle who was in the hospital. Not only was she informative, she was a good listener and addressed our families concerns and needs. She even went above and beyond and had her administrator, Avraham personally call me to let me know he was able to address our special request for our uncle. I would recommend Unique Hospice to anyone who wants their loved ones' to be treated with dignity and respect. read more
