I want to sincerely thank Gauge from Heart of Hospice for the wonderful care he’s been giving my mom. He has been kind, attentive, and compassionate—always treating her with dignity and respect. It’s clear he truly cares about the people he serves, and our family is so grateful for his support during this time. I’d also like to recognize Heather and Natalie, who have both taken such good care of her as well. Their warmth, professionalism, and gentle approach have made a world of difference. Knowing my mom is in such capable and caring hands brings our family great comfort. We are truly thankful for the entire team at Heart of Hospice.

Heart of Hospice was the best! She was in transition and they came in the last days of her life. Their compassion and professionalism were remarkable. They were a blessing to our family during difficult days. My mom had prior hospice care for in the years before. They were so far behind Heart Hospice. They ere not in any way professional or caring. Every staff member I ever spoke to at Heart Hospice were beautiful people. Thanks for caring for my mom who suffered alzheimers and otber illnesses. You agency has the perfect name "HEART HOSPICE". Thanks for being real and passionate about your patients!
