I have been using Sunrise's Caregiving training center over the past 12 years on and off for…read morevarious certifications. The workers are always very knowledgable and have first hand experience being caregivers themselves, which greatly helps when it comes to questions. I recently came in for orientation to become a Sunrise employee and am impressed with the cleanliness and presentation of the building - inside and out! They have painted the rooms so that its not just LED lighting and white walls that give headache vibes. Instead, it feels professional and comfortable. I had to spend 5 hours here on this recent visit and look forward to the 75 hour training where 4 full days will be spent in person at this location. There are parking spots on both sides of the building but you are able to go from one side to the other if you park on the wrong side. There's a kitchenette with coffee, water, and a place to store lunch but I always recommend bringing your own and not bringing anything you need to heat up. This way everything is easy for you and you can maximize your break time without having to hassle over meal preparation. I highly recommend Sunrise if you want to become a caregiver, and they do have internal pay rates once you are certified. The classes make sense, and are hybrid so 4 of the days are in person, the rest are online at home. It's a great way to get certified and allows you to start work quickly while being fully prepared.

When chemo was no longer an option for my mom, she was assigned to Providence Hospice & Home Care…read more This was a pretty scary time for us because we knew it was only a matter of time before my mom would pass away. The nurses and social workers were amazing and compassionate. They gave my mom excellent treatment and compassion. They took care of notary issues for Power of Attorney and helped with the arrangements for my mom's remains. All of this was such a huge relief because it allowed us more quality time together. The nurses were available 24/7, and were willing to come out when the need was urgent. Everyone took the time to get to know Mom and all her family members that were present. When it was no longer feasible for Mom to remain at home, they made sure she was safely transported to the hospital and the hospital hospice staff took over. While she was in the hospital, she was visited by the hospice nurse, and several volunteers. She lasted a week before she passed away, and Hospice is still helping us in the transition after her death. I so appreciate everything this amazing organization has done for our family in this extremely difficult time.

Although very compassionate and caring while working for my dying father, this company DOES NOT…read moreSTOP with their grief support one year in! The loss of my father has hit me pretty hard, and these bastards now, will not stop reminding me of it, by offering their sincere grief support at least once a month. I would be just fine if I wouldn't be reminded every month at least once about my father passing. I asked them, e-mailed them and cursed them out on the phone to make them stop, to no avail! I am at the point of employing a lawyer to send them a cease and desist letter, so I can make their compassionate reminder, a cruelty in disguise, stop!!This is one company I shall surely avoid.

If I could give them zero stars, I would. I agreed to admit…read moremy grandmother to hospice around January 2025. I have no complaints regarding the care as it was adequate and communication from the care staff was consistent. My grandmother did well enough that she was discharged alive from their services. You would think this was a positive thing, but it has been a bureaucratic nightmare. On May 18, 2025, my grandmother was discharged alive from hospice, but reported DEAD to social security. This has caused her to no longer receive benefits from social security, her pension has been shut off, her bank account was suspended. As her power of attorney I have spent a minimum of 200 hours trying to remedy this situation. My grandma has no money, resulting in being unable to pay her caregiver the appropriate participation fee. She now faces potential homelessness at 95 years old. I am still working with SSI to have her deemed alive. I am still working to have her pension reinstated. I was able to get her bank account reopened. It has been over 4 months. I now have to pay out of pocket for her medications as she no longer has insurance, due to being reported as DEAD. My problem with Alpha Hospice is that they are so completely unhelpful. They provided a letter in June stating THEIR MISTAKE and that she is alive. Since then they have not returned my multiple messages for assistance. I would estimate more than 10. I am a hospice nurse for a different hospice and am absolutely APPALLED at their lack of accountability. I would never recommend this organization to my worst enemy.

So many burdens were lifted when Alpha stepped in with excellent care and assuring emotional support. My concerns and frustration were instantly assuaged, and my greatest praise goes to the entire team at Alpha. Heather, my husband's nurse, was phenomenal. She was absolutely amazing with her skill and innate kindness while managing the needs of a difficult person. His bath aide, Arianna, was a great help as well. Kudos to her for her for her powers of persuasion and compassion for a cranky elderly man! I will remain so grateful to each and every team member at Alpha that navigated me through such an intense journey, and I would highly recommend Alpha to any family facing these turbulent waters. With gratitude, Gail W.
