What an incredible group of people! All staff treated my dad with incredible love and support as he navigated his end of life decisions. The nursing staff were so attentive and available. The aide who bathed dad was so good! The owner came out to see dad on the weekend. The social worker, chaplain, office secretary… all top notch and sweet! I was blessed to have them taking care of my dad and guiding and supporting me

To the Guardian Hospice Staff, The Rose family would like to extend our deepest appreciation and gratitude for the outstanding service we received as we comforted our father during his final days. Of the two hospice services we were considering we chose Guardian because of their five-star rating. To be perfectly honest, five stars doesn't match the merit due. Every person we spoke to, on the phone or came to our father's home, was a star. Our every need was met and delivered in a very timely manner. Here's a perfect example of their service. As I'm typing this letter Ms. Suzanne, who helps with social services, calls to see how our family is holding up. She wanted to extend an invitation to anyone needing bereavement counseling. It's very rare that you receive this kind of quality service these days. It takes an extremely large heart and an endless supply of compassion to do what you do all day every day. These qualities don't come easy. They can only be fulfilled by true-to-life Guardian Angels. We know you will deservedly receive many more success stories like this. May God bless each and every one of you and your extended families. A graciously humble “Thank You” form each of us. The Rose Family
