The gentleman Courtney is an asset to St. Francis. He met with us today and listened to our concerns. He was most professional and put the family’s and patient’s concerns foremost as he coordinated with staff at the nursing facility. To create the best plan for us and the facility. He worked expeditiously to put the plan in place quickly, maintaining a professional and caring manner at all times. Thank you Courtney.

Hi everyone I lost my husband do to Renal failure a week ago. He was a first responder in 9/11 and served in the Army so let me say it was devastating to me when he passed. Am so impressed with the nurses and staff. They really care they stayed with me at the hospital er the morning he passed. It means alot to me they stood by my side. Gina the RN and another newer nurse stayed by my side. Thank you Hospice for putting my dear husband first to see he was pain free towards the end I am so thankful he did nit suffer.And you made it happen ! God Bless all of you for doing what you do.
