My experience with Hospice was very short. They weren't contacted until 3 days before my relative's passing. However, I have to say that in that short time they were more helpful, kind, and considerate than any of the doctors that had been treating him for the previous 7 months. They took time to explain what to look for as signs in his illness. They answered every question thoroughly and even after his passing, they continue to call and check on remaining family. I was extremely impressed by them.
