Care Alternatives is a fantastic hospice service–the staff are incredibly caring, compassionate and efficient in their roles as care providers for aging family members of mine. They created a personalized plan that takes into account the needs of my loved ones, including communicating health updates to both them and me on a regular basis so I can make sure everything is going smoothly. The level of comfort provided was extraordinary; they ensured that my loved one’s remaining days were peaceful, which was immensely appreciated by our entire family!

I have worked with Care Alternatives several times as part of my practice as an elderly care physician and every time it has been nothing short of incredible – I’ve noticed that the staff go above and beyond to ensure the highest quality of end-of-life care possible for all patients in their charge, while also providing regular updates to families during this difficult time. Their deep commitment toward providing emotional support to those at this vulnerable stage in life is commendable, not just from a physical standpoint but also from mental health perspective too — remarkable work!
