Would not reccomend, if you want to know why, read on. My father was diagnosied with matastised melanoma and referred to hospice care about 18 months ago. The very first meeting with these people was confused and discombobulated. The social worker and nurse were supposed to both come but apparently they got their schedules crossed and weren't sure what each other was doing. The social worker remained absent for much of the time, however, the nurse was around to earn my father's trust which is a difficult task when it comes to someone caring for him. Then she unapologetically disappeared without even a word, and when we did get in contact her, we were simply told her shift got changed as if it was no big deal. To people assisting there loved one with a terminal illness and to the person dealing with this themselves, this is a big deal. In his last few days the social worker was non existent and we had no set nurse. The ones who did come out were impersonal and seemed to be simply checking off a to do list instead of really caring for my dad. I believe his last couple of days could have been less painful for him had these people been more present and not dropped the ball. I wont go into the details but lets just say they were aware of issues thst they chose not to deal with. Issues that if that had dealt with, he could have been more comfortable. I have heard stories of hospice being there for the dying person ad their family. This place won't give you that. You will get your medicine but you won't get your support which is necessary. This is why I can not to be them any good rating.
