Caring Hospice Service

Caring hospice is the absolute best hospice service. My mother in law recently past away from bladder cancer. I can not say enough good things about Caring hospice and the team assigned to my mom. They are truly angels sent from God. Mary Krietz, Ellen, Bonnie, Collena, Nancy, Kaleb and Michael were not just here for the wonderful care, love and support they gave my mom but they were my life lin, the family"s life line at a time when we needed it the most. They went above and behind the duty to show my mom dignity, compassion and love. This is actually the second review i have wrote because I can"t seem to find the first one and i felt it so important to let other families know how amazing these angels are that i had to write another one. Our family is so appreciative of the caring hospice team, they made us feel so loved. The care was outstanding. I work at Columbia Cottage and have worked with aides, nurses, chaplains and cae mangers, so when my mom was diagnosed and had to go on hospice I knew that caring hospice was the only option for mom because I knew what loving workers they are. My mom past away with dignity thanks to our caring hospice team. You will not recieve better care from any other agency. So I want to personally thank you all for making a unbearable situation bearable. Thank you for caring so much, thank you for supporting mom and our family. Much love to all of you, Mary Farrell

The care and compassion that my husband received while being assisted by Caring Hospice was amazing. All of the staff that assisted us from social services, spiritual aid, nursing care and the patience and gentleness shown by the aids that assisted in his care was phenomenol and I would have been unable to keep him home without all of the support I received from them. I have nothing but good things to say about everyone I met through their organization. I can't begin to thank them enough and without them I would not have been able to keep him home and be with him when he passed.

Service provided was excellent. They made sure our mother was not in pain and as comfortable as possible. Spiritual counseling was also excellent

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE UNCARING ORGANIZATION! My mom passed away- and they have ONE NURSE WORKING FOR 6 counties ! Rediculous! Response time was OVER TWO HOURS. Obviously, the only thing that the big shot owners care about is MAKING MONEY. Totally SHAMEFUL ORGANIZATION. You might as hire people off the street.

I am a nurse in a Long Term Nursing Facility. Caring Hospice came to this facility to provide care for residents appropriate for hospice care. They offer compassionate care not only to the patient but also a very special support to family members. They have a very good team which provides patient care, addresses the psycho-social needs,social services, Bereavement Services with Chaplains who support the patient and family at the end stages of their lives. They are exceptional at pain management, and are also willing and available to adjust this management to the residents needs. The also offer volunteers that visit the facility to provide comfort, socialization, and kindness at this difficult time. The allow residents to die with dignity and special care. I also had the privilege of working with them on a personal level as they cared for my brother-in-law's mother. Prior to her admission to the facility I work at, the Care Team visited her on a regular basis in her home. They were supportive and helpful to the family when she had to transition into Long Term Care. They made the arrangements and helped my sister and brother-in-law get her to they nursing home when she was no longer safe to be alone. They made sure her pain was managed as she had multiple brain tumors. The volunteer brought a mountain goat string puppet and gave the puppet her name.after she passed away. Here suffering now brings joy to patients who are fighting terminal illness, and also touched my families hearts in a special way. especially her young granddaughter who is also my niece. She asked my niece if she could name the goat Botchi which is the name we called her as it is a polish word for grandmother. The Caring Hospice Team was there for her when she took her last breaths of life, and they planned a beautiful memorial service which they all attended. Each one said a special poem or prayer at the Memorial. The Chaplain also meet her spiritually as she did not go to church but she new her soul would spend eternity with God. My younger sister is now fighting for her own battle with end stage colon cancer, and I will call them at the appropriate time. They also offered me support during my sister's battle even though she was not signed on officially to their service, I know they are only a phone call away and I know my sister will receive loving, compassionate support as well as our family.
