"I'd like to thank the entire Vitas Hospice team who cared for my Grandmother who was 97 years young. She had a zest for life and loved to be social. Vitas was able to control her congestive heart failure symptoms and allowed her to keep active with our family and her friends at Lexington Nursing Home in Schaumburg. Everyone was so caring and helpful and always available. I can honestly say that Vitas helped us enjoy the time we had left without worry or concern. I feel it was because of their staff that she lived longer than what our doctors told us. Thank you Vitas Hospice for your compassion and dedication to lovingly care for my grandmother. I wish I could have convinced my other family members to research hospice care and Vitas sooner!!! "

"My father-in-law was admitted for final hospice care at the Barrington facility a few days ago. The staff was wonderful and respectful of what we were going through. If you have to die, this is the place to go."

"I used this provider recently and have nothing but good things to say about them. They brought or sent all of the supplies we needed and the staff was wonderful. Our nurse was warm, caring, and sympathetic. Not only did she take good care of my Mom but also of me, the caregiver. The aides all came on time and treated my Mom with care. All staff was very friendly and helpful to us. I would highly recommend them. "

"As good as was expected, given the unbelievably sad circumstances inherent in my Mom's need to be there at her end-of-life. "

"We are going with Residential Home Health & Hospice - Lisle. They have come out and are trying to get more assistance for my mom, like Meals On Wheels and stuff like that. We have been using them for three months now. A nurse comes in and evaluates my mom. She takes her blood pressure and temperature and sees if she has sores or anything like that. My mom has an occupational therapist and a physical therapist. They gave a lot of recommendations. We just recently got my mom the thing that goes around your toilet to help her stand and give her support. We also got her walker. Then they're doing the actual physical therapy and occupational therapy, trying to strengthen her core and stuff. The occupational therapist and the physical therapist come every other week, so it's twice a month. It's not a whole lot, but it does help. The nurse comes once a month. Medicaid pays for all of it as far as the billing goes."

"When we were looking around for an assisted living for my grandmother after we found out that she had alzheimer's, we took a look at Little Mary's. We really liked, as did my grandmother. The staff were friendly and happily answered our questions. My grandmother really like the people since the really made her feel like family. The unfortunate part was that they are still rather small and while my grandmother was willing to live at home with a care provider, since their home base was so nearby, the lack of the medical facilities she might need caused us to look elsewhere. The staff was friendly and competent though, and if the conditions had been different, my grandmother would have happily worked with them. "

"We had hospice care with Transitions Care. Most of the nurses were good and knowledgeable. I was not impressed with the P.A. I had to tell her what to do, which was kind of sad. They ran out of meds for him, and they had somebody come to my house at 11:30 at night with them. To me, that shouldn't have happened. They use these meds for everybody and it's not like it's a new and improved drug. When the social worker was here, she was extremely unprofessional. She sat here and pulled hair off the dog and threw it on the floor. I'm looking at her like, "My husband is laying here in a hospital bed in the middle of the living room dying and you want me to worry about brushing a dog?" I said, "Please don't throw it down on the floor. I have to clean that up." And then she called a chaplain. My priest had been to my house twice already and I didn't need this chaplain. I told her so, but they came, and the chaplain sat down next on one side of the bed, and I was on the other side trying to say my goodbyes to my husband. They're talking back and forth about what a nice subdivision this is, wondering how much the houses go for. That it's really nice and it's a good retirement community. I finally looked at her and I said, "You know, let me tell you something. For one thing, I really don't think you even need to be here. I have my own priest, and all I did was pick up the phone and he'll be here in ten minutes. For another thing, I am not going to listen to you two talk real estate. Go outside if you want to do that." I said, "Personally, I don't even know what the social worker is doing here. All you're doing is making a mess in my living room. So, I would like you both to leave." That's pretty bad that I had to do that, but I have never dealt with anybody like that. That was awful. My husband died at 10:30 and they didn't come and take care of him until 2:30. So, we had him sitting here in the living room, and then we had to wait for the funeral home to come. It was just a horrible experience. To me, that shouldn't have happened that way. And they blamed everything on COVID and being short staffed."

"They were very attentive to my aunt’s needs and the concerns of the family. My aunt was covered by Medicare. There was a little communication glitch at the beginning, but I would absolutely recommend them."
