This is Jody Sandel using my husband's phone. He just passed away on May 23rd 2026. He was in hospice when he passed. I'm so grateful for hospice they helped us out so much . Didn't have to worry about alot of things , they covered it. Was always just a phone call away. Night or Day. Everyone was so sweet and understanding. I loved all the nurses. I need to Thank Marlee and Kelly that was his Nurses/ caregivers for a good while. They were so helpful and understanding and went out of their way. So sweet. Thank you hospice for everything I will always be grateful and you made this terrible situation much easier.

Be ware , Hospice nurses & Dr at this facility do not honor your wishes for your loved one . They also change there cares and do not notify you . The hospice nurses work for Chambersburg hospital. I was told my moms meds would arrive at there facility before my mom got there . That did not happen she had to go into the next day to get all her meds she needed from the hospital . I was assured by the hospice nurse they would come with her when she arrived at the mercy house . No one bothered to check to see if she had everything . When it says on line when your in hospice , they will do what you want for your loved one as far as meds , feeding ect wrong don’t believe it . Go at your own risk .. the aides was wonderful there , it’s the hospice nurses and the mercy house Dr .

Wonderful group of women and men. Caring and devoted professionals. They were so reassuring and there for us every step of the way. Answered all our questions and at times just listened as we told stories and just needed to cry. We truly appreciated each and everyone of the nurses and everyone else involved who helped our loved one transition to the after life as pain free and peaceful as possible. Thank you Franklin Hospice
