Homeland Hospice

I would not recommend this company to anyone seeking hospice care for there loved one. First when they would come to bath or take care of wounds they did not have the supplies to do the job properly, and we had to look around the house to find the things needed to complete the job. Than one day my mom woke up in pain, but she wanted to wait till the nurse came to see what see recommended. The nurse came and I inquired about starting the morphine provided by the service. She kept insisting that she was not ready and told me to give her lorazepam, an anti anxiety pill. Within 10 minutes she started having horrible hallucinations. I called her immediately to see what to do. It took about an hour to get back to me and she said she must be drug naive and it would just have to run its coarse. I asked if I should start the morphine again, and she said no, that I should just crush Tylenol in apple sauce and give it to her. this went on for eleven hours till my sons fiance, a CRNP that worked with cancer patients.came an said right away she should be on morphine. So we called the number provided to authorize the morphine. They authorized the morphine and once we gave her the morphine, she immediately calmed down and relaxed. The next day a different nurse came, thank goodness, and I told her what happened. She did not understand why she recommended the lorazepam instead of morphine either. She was very good and cleaned and attended my mom's issues. She also messaged the doctor and got my mom's morphine adjusted. I was well pleased with her. My mom passed ten hours later.

My mother is in a facility for memory care. She suffers from Alzheimer's and dementia. Homeland Hospice has been coming in to see her for 7 months now. She has Robin, Helen & Chaz who have been giving her exceptional care. They truly care about her & her needs and are in constant contact with me, which I really appreciate. I know she would not be getting the care from the facility (where she resides) without these wonderful ladies providing the care that she so needs. Thank you so much for all that you do!!

Each person from Homeland that came into my home was kind, compassionate, and gentle with my husband during the last month of his life. Nurse Helen was absolutely the best! She cared about my husband's dignity, his pain, and always had a gentle and soothing tone when she spoke to him. She also understood the heartbreak I was experiencing while watching my husband struggle with cancer. I can't thank her and the rest of the staff enough for taking such good care of him.
