My husband had Gilchrist Home Hospice for 1 year, then died at home. We were given help in setting up, they ordered supplies. Our nurse had many years experience, was very organized, friendly and helpful. The lady who came in to bathe, shampoo and shave him was reliable and gentle. We were very grateful!

I was the caregiver of my sister's who was dying of pancreatic cancer. On her last days Gilcrest failed to help her 100 percent. They left her to die at home with no medications, no help and suffering.
I called Gilcrest several times but no one would come out. They said a doctor would send in meds. I called several times and was told the Doctor is not answering his pages' text or calls. I called again and again to get my sister help but none came.
Three hours after her passing I received a call saying her end of life medications were put into the pharmacy .
My sister only asked one thing if Gilcrest when signing hospice contract and that was not to let her suffer in pain her last days. Gilcrest ont only failed to meet the contract but failed her to be humane.
Money grabbing company with no concern for thir clients. I called several time to find out what went wrong and all I keep getting were excuses and run around.
Do anyone. Gilcrest Hospice if you are for anyone. needing hospice.
I waited nine month to write this hoping to find out what went wrong in order to help others in the future. Still no answer.

This organization is hands down the best choice for hospice patients. Everyone was so caring. They made this very difficult period easier for my Dad and the family. I highly recommend them

I have been using Gilchrist Hospice Care for my wife. They have an RN that comes in once a week and they have aides that give her a shower and get her dressed. They're doing a good job. They come when they say they're coming and they give her good care. The nurse pays attention to everything including her medications and by checking her vital signs. They have had a chaplain visit and a social worker that comes once a week, too. It's all going through Medicare.

Cherish is one of the nurses who came to take care of my Dad Lefty K. for five very long months. She has more warmth than any other nurse or care person I have ever met. She is kind, and does her job to the fullest. Top ten in my book. My brother and doctor Lamos of Hunt Valley says the same. "No one like her, she should definitely get a raise, and an award for being the best person to represent your company.

My husband had hospice for only two days. The staff at Gilchrist Hospice were very nice. They took care of my husband. They explained things to me that I didn't understand before. They made everything clear to me. It was a very good experience.

I have been the primary care provider for my mother-in-law who lives in my home for the past 4 years. We started with Gilchrist home hospice two months ago. A nurse comes out to the house once a week, and a home health aid comes to the house 3x a week to help bathe her as she is very weak. We also have a social worker who helps arrange respite care. All of the people who have come to our home from Gilchrist have been very kind, compassionate and caring. It is wonderful to have some help! I had an emergency with my mother-in-law where she was too weak for me to move her from her wheelchair and within the hour of my calling, an aid and the nurse came to my home to help me. These loving people are a blessing.
