Five stars to the wonderful hospice nurses that took care of my grandmother in her last days. Every single one was gentle, compassionate, and professional at all times and alert to her every need. Tammy, Jerry, Gayle, Janice, and Laura, my family is forever grateful to you all.

My mother passed away at Hospice of the Comforter on April 15, 2014. I can not express in words what a great place this is and how special the people are whom run it. With heart felt genuine emotion they work to make the patient and the family as comfortable and informed as possible. On the day and moment my Mom passed, my brother and I, along with her husband and his neice were blessed to be by her side. Guiding us through this process was an angel nurse named Kathy Ploehn. I will never forget any of that day and with forever appreciate Kathy and her warmth, love & professionalism. Folks like Kathy are very special and unique people that truly do work in this world that «matters» and touch people’s lives in ways that you can not fully describe in Unilocal review.

I was not happy with their service. There were complaints from the stff about being under staffed. There seemed to be a mix up from one shift to another about medications and care. We were told one thing by one nurse and then soemthing else by another. We were told they would be HERE when the loved one passed. Loved one was very afraid of death and kept asking them to be here. They were NOT… In fact they arrived almost 90 minutes after the passing to verify death. The bathing nurse however was compassionate, caring and great!!! Loved one kept crying and saying to me” they dont care about me”. Some of the Hospice might be great, ours was not. This is an honest rating by a true prior client.

I have needed to write this review for several months. This organization is nothing less than amazing. During an incredibly difficult time /​transition Hospice of the Comforters nurses came to my family’s home and made my husbands’ father’s passing peaceful /​comfortable, informative and dignified. Thank you so much from our entire family.

My dad is here and the people are nothing short of amazing. They truly care about their patients dignity and letting them pass on as comfortably as possible. They haven’t forgotten the family either are very empathetic and compassionate. If you have to be in a place like this it is the one I’d go to.

I cannot thank the staff and volunteers of Hospice of the Comforter enough for the love, care and compassion they extended to our Mom in her recent passing. They truly provided comfort, support and even shoulders to cry on to her family and to our dear Mom. Her transition to a greater life was made easier and more natural through their concern and good care.
Sincerely and with much gratitude,
Laurie Wright

Hospice has changed over the year. It no longer helps a dying person have dignity and feel loved. My loved one passed feeling ignored and uncared about by Hospice. (July 2012) When you complain they all say they are under staffed. They give attitude when you call, they complain about their work load when they arrive. I am almost 70 myself and do NOT ever want Hospice of the Comforter. I hear it used to be good… not any more. They are over worked, under staffed, and blame everything on Medicare not paying.;…even though they are non profit. Anyone who had Hospice of the comforter before July 2012 was treated with love, respect and dignity. I heard from other patients, and even from the staff themselves, that they are not nearly as good as they use to be. THEY ADVERTISE ALL THAT THEY ARE NO LONGER ABLE TO GIVE.

Hospice of the Comforter recently took care of my Mom, who died in early September. Having worked for a hospice in Texas for five years, I expect a lot. I cannot say enough good things about this group of caring people. If you or your loved one needs the help of hospice, please consider Hospice of the Comforter. They helped my mom meet her death with dignity and love. I could not have asked for more.
