I would recommend Hospice of the Cherokee to anyone! They were all so amazing with my dad. We had a horrible company first and had to switch and it and they made everything so much easier during a very difficult time! Even when he was unconscious they still made sure they talked to him and let him know what they were doing every time! They answered any and all questions we had. Made sure we knew we could call at anytime! Thank you so much for making my dad's last days an easier transition!

This is a great team of nurses that understand that the care they provide on a daily basis is a calling and not just a career.

Hospice of the Cherokee is by far the best hospice company in Cherokee County. In all of Oklahoma, in my opinion. Not only do they take wonderful care of you and your loved ones, but they treat you like family. They will gladly sit at the kitchen table and play chess with their patients, or even sit on the front porch and talk about life. Your care is their number one priority. When you’re admitted, you become part of the family. When my time comes, I will only allow Hospice of the Cherokee to care for me.
