Shoals Hospice assisted in the care of our dad in his last two or three weeks of life while he was a Mitchell Hollingsworth Nursing Home. We appreciate the care and compassion shown him and our family in his last few days. It was comforting to have them with him and us during that time.

I wanted to say thank you Jamie for helping us with dad. We couldn't ask for a better nurse. Dad enjoyed seeing you and picking with you. You grew on us all like you was part of the family.
