My mom was in ER Saturday, July 29. She needed to be in hospice when she was discharged from the…read morehospital. I didn't have any idea which hospice to choose so the hospital social worker made some calls. The first one responded was Mr. Anthony Goodson from Hospice Plus. He came to the ER not long after the call. He told me he was mowing his lawn and dropped everything to come to talk to me. He explained what Hospice Plus would do for my mom and told me he would coordinate with the social worker for my mom's discharge so that everything would go smoothly. Everything went well the next day (Sunday). All the necessary medical equipment and supplies were delivered to my house before mom was home. RN Angelica Jones came to our house to complete the paperwork. When she found out mom did not have DNR, she helped us to get all the necessary paperwork filled up and signed. She then emailed the DNR to me and called me to make sure that I received it, by then it was 10:30pm on a Sunday night! I'm really thankful for Mr. Anthony Goodson and RN Angelica Jones. They went above and beyond to help a dying patient and her family. My mom went to be with the Lord Monday morning. Without Hospice Plus's help, I would be at a loss. Thank you!

This was going to include listening to the recorded phone calls. On May 16th, I called & left a message for Gloria to get an explanation as to why this happened & what they found out in their investigation. (For my own closure, I want to know their investigation wasn't just lip service.) The receptionist called me back to verify my mother's information & mine as well. It is now May 19th & I haven't had a return call. At this point, THINK TWICE before placing your loved one in their care.

Sadly, we have had a horrific and tragic experience with T. Boone Pickens / Faith Presbyterian…read moreHospice. At this point, I would be fearful of the level of care (neglect?) they are giving to their hospice patients who do not have a voice to advocate for themselves in their final weeks or days. This negative review is long and detailed because I don't want anyone to have to go through the experience they put us and my mother through. I hope it is helpful to other families going through such excruciating end-of-life decisions for their loved ones. We were on the waitlist for the "next available room", just awaiting transport, for my dying mother who is in terrible pain after fracturing both hips and a femur (simultaneously). After being told at her final assessment on January 19 that transport would "very likely be tomorrow", there was an abrupt change. They canceled the required Covid test they had scheduled for immediately before transport, and suddenly nothing was available. Every day for five days. Strange, because a friend had his mother admitted that second day. First red flag of their deception. Ultimately, after five days and no response other than terse texts each day saying "still no room, should be tomorrow", we learned from their team that they LOST their license to be able to provide inpatient hospice care! This was Tuesday, January 24, 2023. (What??) After that call, they ghosted us. We could not get a return call, text or email from anyone, trying daily. Meanwhile, my mother is still in terrible pain at an assisted living that provides no help. And because of her terrible pain, her Alzheimer's suddenly declined tremendously, immediately after the injuries. She is a shadow of herself and suddenly does not recognize me or the rest of her family. Up till the day of the injuries, she lit up when I walked in the room, greeted me enthusiastically, and spoke to me and her (private) caregivers. Now she sits in pain with her eyes closed, and when she does open them, there is zero recognition there. She isn't eating, is barely drinking, and is not getting the pain control medication she needs--in fact, which we were told by their nurses is "urgent." It's tragic. Out of desperation, we finally contacted corporate management and, after their initial shock and promises to "get to the bottom of it right away", we learned the truth. In a one-sentence text (!) the next day, they stated that they "can no longer meet my mother's needs." (What?!??) She had been assessed, accepted, and we were merely waiting for an available room, "any hour now", since January 19. We were told they would call me when transport (ambulance) was ready. Literally overnight, they suddenly "can't meet her needs?" The definition of Hospice is to care for a dying patient. What "needs" can they suddenly not meet? After that, once again, we have been completely ghosted. We have learned that several patients have been admitted to inpatient in the subsequent week, and we cannot get a return phone call or even a simple explanation. After my initial reaction of fear and denial when her doctor recommended Hospice (and wrote and order for it), and then the T. Boone Pickens / Faith nurses and sales team convinced us by explaining how badly Mom needed to be there "to get the medication and care she needs", I am heartbroken and helpless thinking of her condition now and her constant, untreated pain that she will suffer for her remaining days. The facility is physically beautiful. LOTS of money has been spent on a pretty building, nice fixtures, an attractive entrance, nice artwork--nothing the patients care about or need. It is just a lot of smoke and mirrors for prospective families during sales appointments. But it is painfully obvious that is where their priority is. Not the patients. Not the families. This sad fact is echoed repeatedly in other reviews. My assumption, since we can't even get the decency of an explanation, is that they have shifted to accepting only the private pay "Residential" patients (at $12,500/month) while leaving patients desperately awaiting hospice hanging alone in agony. We knew T. Boone Pickens. In fact, my parents bought his condo in Turtle Creek (and lived there for 12 years until assisted living). He would be rolling over in his grave if he knew what is happening at his namesake facility. Anyone who would like to know more or share advice (esp after the anticipated contradictory response here from their staff) can reach me by looking at my profile.

Utter heartbreak! After more than two weeks of multiple assessments of my mother, assurances of…read moretransport any day, waitlists, delays and broken promises we were told that they are no longer accepting patients for inpatient hospice because they lost their pharmacy that prescribes IV drugs. PHARMACY? Singular? How do you lose your only pharmacy that allows you to be in business? No redundancy? They are still accepting residential and respite patients which are private pay, but not inpatient hospice patients which are paid for by Medicare. Is this a pharmacy issue or something else? We asked their representative case worker if they had any visibility as to when they would have the pharmacy issue resolved. She said management was not comfortable giving any timeline. After that call all we received was silence and no response to multiple attempts. We were able to find out a week later, after being connected to the CEO, that they were admitting patients for IV hospice care - Just not us. I feel lied to, manipulated and ultimately abandoned. We have had to scramble to find another provider. The process of managing your mother's demise is emotionally taxing enough. To add the additional stress and frustration through an exceptionally disorganized process is inexcusable. Please if you are considering T Boone Pickens Hospice or Faith Presbyterian reach out to me first. I welcome your inquiry and I am easy to find.

She did not inform me of that prognosis. I only found out because I was concerned watching my mom so I called the hotline. The nurse called me back and told me I was right to be concerned. Do not expect anything to change. They will keep giving her pain meds every two hours. I am now sitting here 6 hours later alone, with my mom at death's door with zero support from Three Oaks. To my knowledge they have no intention of sending anyone up here to assist with her final hours. I have seen hospice workers many times in the past and they have all been phenomenal. In this case, I cannot say that because there are no workers to be found for me to comment on. I am with my mom and I will be with her to the end as she was with me when she brought me into this world.

His facial hair was so long and he wasn't showered or groomed regularly. Patient across hall had tv so loud can hear it with the door closed. Room wasn't cleaned.
