  • Everyone with Michael's care were exceptionally great! Could not be more happy with the care Michael received from all of the staff. Thank-you to all who made it easier transition for Michael as well as myself and family.

  • This was my first experience with Hospice care, and if I had to use this care again it would certainly be West River Hospice center. The hospice team was there for us from beginning to end. Very professional and concerned with total care. Thanks to all of you.

  • Helen's nurse Jaime' was amazing. She was so helpful and always responded or by sending supplies when asked. Kerry was also super helpful with Helen (showering) and checking in. She even raced over to the house to help me get Helen up after a fall. Helen had that much trust in her — and that says something.

  • We had Kelley also. They were so wonderful. Explained everything very clearly. I called Kelley with questions and if she didn't answer she got right back to me. She was the best. She was friendly, very very caring.

  • The nursing care was wonderful — kind, punctual, supportive, sweet, caring; loved them!

  • I could NOT HAVE ASKED for better Hospice care for my sister, Trish. I especially want to commend Jessie-Jean and Kelley. They went ABOVE AND BEYOND for both Trish and our large family. We felt that they truly loved Trish and they always lightened our load with a smile or a funny remark. Their compassionate care made all the difference in suffering through the heartbreak of Dementia. We will never be able to thank them enough.

  • Thank you for all the care. It made this horrible experience better.
