I had the pleasure of working with Sutter Health while a family member was under their care and found that every aspect of our experience exceeded expectations. The staff were knowledgeable, friendly and supremely caring – they went out of their way to keep us informed through each step in the hospice journey. Their attention to detail, responsiveness to any questions we had – both medical or otherwise – improved exponentially by having Sutter Health on board. All communication was timely and professional, making for an overall stress free process for both the patient and his family members alike. They truly provided a peace of mind from beginning to end!

It is without reservation that I would recommend the services offered through Sutter Health when considering choices in hospice care providers for your loved one’s situation/needs.. The staff is kind yet competent offering hallmark empathy combined with knowledge thus giving excellent guidance every step of the way dealing compassionately with difficult decisions during such emotional times.. Communicating oftentimes complex information simply yet thoroughly makes them stand out facilitating peaceful transitions no matter how grim realities seem or may be perceived… Redefining altruism at its core moving beyond mere words into true commitment towards service & what matters most!!
