Initially I was terrified to have my mom here. The nursing staff, doctor and chaplain all helped to calm my nerves. Checking in regularly with my mother and our entire families well being. They explained to me, in as much detail as I asked for, what the transition would be like for my mother, and what I could watch for as her advocate to make certain that she was comfortable. We knew the staff by name and they always responded to all our patient and family needs as was needed. Since mothers passing we have received multiple follow up calls to check on the mental health of those of us that were with mom. We have also received multiple cards commemorating time passed. I am eternally grateful to this staff of gentle souls. What started out as terrifying and unexpected event was turned in the privilege of being with mom while she transitioned. Thank you Cornerstone of Lady Lake, Michelle Black

My Dad was placed in the care of Cornerstone in July 2020 after several years of battling Huntington's Disease. The nurses & the chaplain who visited my Dad multiple times a week took incredible care of him and became like family to all of us. The team was made up of saints who assisted in making my Dad comfortable and Mom (& the rest of us) at ease during the transition. I have nothing but nice things to say about everyone at Cornerstone. Thank you! From myself and my entire family.

As the administrator for Granny NANNIES villages location, I have referred many families to Cornerstone hospice and have had our care providers work side by side with the hospice team. I have always known that Cornerstone was a great company.
It wasn't until my own father became terminal and deteriorated quickly that I turned to Cornerstone and learned first hand how compassionate Cornerstone was for both patient and family.
During hurricane Irma, Cornerstone came immediately and was in constant contact with my family taking care of his medication and adjusting as needed to keep my dad comfortable until he past away.
I can not say enough good things about Cornerstone hospice group.
Granny NANNIES and I will continue to refer Cornerstone, so that other families may have the support to make end of life a bit easier to cope with.
Forever Grateful,

Cornerstone Hospice sends people in to give my mom baths. I just wish there were some things that they'd do a little differently, like phone calls to let you know when they're coming, and how they're going to come, because sometimes it's almost like a pop in visit. It's kind of tough to schedule around, but for the most part, the doctors, nurses, social workers, and CNAs have been good.

We used Cornerstone for my mother for two weeks. They came to the house, and I could not say enough about the people, from the nurses that came to start us off all the way through the time she passed away. They gave her medical services and would come in and check on her, even when she was in the hospital for a few days. They came in when she passed away and took care of everything. Whenever I called, I got someone who communicated well. I got what I wanted and was happy with what I saw. I would use them again if I needed hospice. I would definitely recommend them and have told a couple of my neighbors in the same situation. I was very pleased with everything that Cornerstone offered.

Interviewed this provider
Sept.,2010 My was admitted to this facility and even though his stay was shorter than his family was expecting (less than 24hrs) the care he received was more than we expected from the staff. They handled him with love ane respect - a if he was one of their family. I know this to be true because family members were with him from the time he arrived and when he passed. For several years he had been in a lot of pain and distress but from the minute he arrived and until he passed they bathed/clothed & helped him go peacefully to meet his lord & saviour. The look he possessed at that time was a look utter peace & contentment the best he had looked in several years.
If you are looking for a place to go or a place for a loved one that you can trust then give Cornerstone Hospice alook obver.

Beautiful care!
When I was a student nurse 5 years ago, I was allowed to do clinicals at the Tavares Hospice House. I was so impressed by the staff and care they provided! The nurses genuinely cared for each person in their keeping! They were loving and warm toward patients and families, and provided the BEST care. Each person at the hospice house was treated like family. "Patients" were always clean and comfortable, and no one was ever ignored. My experience there has stuck with me even 5 years later, and has helped shape the type of nurse that I am! Thank you to the staff of Tavares Hospice House for showing me the way!
