Overall
Almost everyone at St. Joseph ...

Almost everyone at St. Joseph Hospice was wonderful to us when my father was passing away three months ago. My favorite nurse was Darlene because she would just come right in and get to work without having to be told what to do. Kris, Alecia, and Melinda were especially great too. But all the nurses we had were truly fantastic and caring. Our case manager, David, was amazing. He always knew the right thing to say. Our only unpleasant experience with St. Joseph Hospice was with a girl named Heather who was very rude to me and my siblings just minutes before my father passed away. I really think she is in the wrong line of work. In any event, I would like to thank the folks over at St. Joseph Hospice for enabling us to honor my dad's final wish--to pass away in his own home surrounded by his family.
