Amedisys Hospice - Harrisburg

Our family’s experience with Amedisys Hospice Care is extremely disappointing. Unfortunately, the level of care they provide feels like the bare minimum. We interact with numerous nurses and aides, yet many of them are unfamiliar with the patient’s history, care plan, or current condition, resulting in inconsistent and frustrating care. One particularly concerning experience involves a nurse who is unable to obtain even basic vital signs, including an oxygen saturation or blood pressure reading. It is alarming that someone providing hospice care cannot perform these fundamental assessments. Their responsiveness is equally unacceptable. When we request urgent assistance, we expect timely support given the nature of hospice care. Instead, they arrive approximately five hours later, acting as though the delay is normal and without acknowledging the impact it has on the patient and family. Hospice care should provide compassionate, knowledgeable, and dependable support during one of the most difficult times a family can experience. Based on our experience, Amedisys consistently falls far short of those expectations. If you have other hospice agencies available in your area, I strongly recommend considering them instead.

Our experience with Amedisys Hospice was truly a blessing during a very difficult time. The team was compassionate, attentive, and supportive every step of the way. Rena was especially wonderful. Her kindness, patience, and calming presence made such a difference for our family. We are so grateful for the care she provided and highly recommend Amedisys Hospice.

Excellent care and prompt response! I cannot say enough about the staff at Asana Hospice. My friend's mother became ill and needed immediate management of her symptoms at the hospital. The medical team recommended Asana Hospice, and now we understand why! They arrived within one hour and immediately explained their services and managed her pain. The hospital staff had obvious respect for them, and they implemented the recommendations right away. The Chaplain came when needed and offered her services with a memorial if the family wanted to do so. The bereavement counselor will follow all of us for more than a year after her death if needed. I never knew how amazing this service was until my friend needed it. Thank you, Asana, for making a difficult situation as peaceful as could be.
