From the moment I connected with Silver Lining Hospice, that apprehension began to fade. I felt supported and understood during one of the most difficult seasons of my life. My point of contact, Josh, was consistently professional, proactive, courteous, and helpful -- guiding me through each step with compassion and clarity. Ashley, the Head RN, demonstrated not only exceptional medical knowledge but also genuine warmth and empathy. She didn't just supervise the team -- she was right there alongside the CNAs, delivering hands-on care with the same dedication and heart. She always listened and answered every question with patience, offered support, prepared me for the changes ahead, and -- most importantly -- treated Vera with the utmost dignity and respect she deserved. The CNAs were equally remarkable -- caring, attentive, and loving in every interaction. They, as with Ashley, were always punctual and lit up the room with their positive, loving energy, which on many occasions prompted Vera to share a long-hidden smile of happiness and sometimes even an enthusiastic "hi!" They perform a much-needed but often thankless job, yet they do it with constant love, care, and concern. Over the course of seven months, with multiple visits each week, supportive friendships developed -- not only with me, but also with my Doberman, Cheyenne, who was coping with her own sadness and fear from Vera's illness. These bonds of friendship became deeply appreciated and even more valued upon Vera's passing. Silver Lining Hospice truly lived up to its name, becoming a source of light during a time of deep sadness. I will always be grateful for their dedication, compassion, and the peace they brought to our home. -- Johnny Burchett

Greetings Silver Linings Michelle Christensen, RN Business Owner!…read moreWell...There was no "Silver Linings" for me! This is my experience & opinions with this Hospice Care... I read Michelle's heart felt "masterpiece". "From the Business"...Words like "compassion", "going the extra mile", "informed", "educated" & "make sure we are always performing at our upmost best"! I find this "magnificence" hard to believe! That's because I requested home care from this company via e-mail. Michelle responded & asked me some personal questions. I answered her. That was six days ago! Michelle presents herself as an influential positive role model evidenced w/her compassion, how she went the extra mile & performed @ her upmost best!...NOT!!!...SHE GHOSTED ME!!!...I guess this is how she operates her company. (?) I've been a business owner myself. Ghosting was not something I even thought about doing to my clients. Shame on you Michelle! I'm very disappointed in you & your company...

Thank you, Porter Hospice At The Johnson Center, for loving my mom and making her feel so special and important in the last few pages of her life here on earth! Everyone has been so caring, helpful and amazing! My mom is finally at peace, knowing she is not alone, because not only does she have her family and friends, but now she also has her Porter Hospice Team, who have become her family, too! This is a gift in which we will be forever grateful! It takes very strong, yet compassionate people to work in a Hospice environment. May God bless you and your families for the time, sacrifice and heartache you all face daily. We are so very honored and thankful to have our mom in your care!

My mom came to Porter Hospice at this location after several health issues left her with a terminal…read moreprognosis. She stayed here for 8 days total. Her room had windows that actually opened, and a bird feeder with various birds and other wildlife outside kept her entertained. The room provided ample seating for visitors and there were other common areas and outdoor areas where families could gather. Most spectacularly, the entire group of staff and volunteers here is amazing. Joan gave us a tour initially, and she has been volunteering here for 18 years! Terry, the chaplain, visits all guests on a regular basis and offers support to families. Nurses including (but not limited to) Jill, Jamie, Laura, Allison, Jenny, Amy, and Margie we're so kind and caring. CNAs including (but not limited to) Mary and Shanon were outstanding. They responded to my mom's need right away and made her feel like a guest rather than a patient. Dr. Mush (Mushinski) gave us all a clear understanding of what to expect and added humor and compassion. The volunteers that monitor the front desk keep tabs on everyone coming and going. They check to make sure you're on the "approved visitors" list so no one unexpected enters the room. One day, when my dad and I arrived, the volunteer at the front desk told us Mom was getting her hair washed! The volunteer knew about my mom and cared about what was happening with her. Mom's condition actually improved while she was at this hospice facility because of the peacefulness of the place and the care from the staff. Sadly, it couldn't reverse her situation, but it gave us several great days to share memories and have heartfelt conversations. I can't express enough how wonderful this place and these people have been for our family.

We had an incredible experience with Extended Family Home Care. After evaluating two home care…read moreagencies in August 2020, and concerned about Covid protocols during the height of the pandemic, we chose to work with EFHC. We had one caregiver for a month who moved away suddenly, and that transition was handled smoothly by Rachel and her team. We ended up working with the agency from late August 2020 through mid-March 2021, and our caregiver Linda became a member of our family. I could not recommend this agency highly enough. Throughout any billing, long term care insurance, scheduling, or other logistical challenge they handled all the difficult parts. Our caregiver Linda always followed covid protocols and was a friendly and engaging presence. Linda worked with both of my parents when they lived with us and did an amazing job juggling a complex set of care needs and personalities. I could not have been happier working with EFHC and Linda. Without this team's effort my husband and I would not have been able to continue in our jobs and handle other priorities in caregiving and our own personal lives.

Hospice review We…read moreare so pleased that we chose the Collier hospice for my mother's end of life care. She had a wonderful nurse, Ann, while she was at home. She visited weekly and helped my mother adjust to the end of life. As her care became more involved Ann was there each step of the way supporting my mother and our family. I have never med someone who was so kind and understanding and competent. Finally My mother had to spend her final days in-patient at their facility. She raved over how quiet and beautiful it was. Again the staff was so very kind and supportive of both my mother and our family. The Chaplin was very helpful with family dynamics. Even the chief was wonderful, providing her with warm chocolate chip cookies which gave her much enjoyment in her final days. What a gift it was to have this organization available to care for my mother and our family at this hard time. As a retired nurse I am picky and could not fina any fault, just very competent care! I can not recommend this hospice more. 100/100.

I'm surprised at many of the comments…read more My mom has been under the hospice care of Agape now going on a year. They have been of service while she was at Libby Bortz Assisted Living (awesome facility) and now as the Manor on Marston (another awesome facility). Dealing with end of life isn't easy and emotions run high. Moving loved ones into and out of assisted facilities is stressful on everyone. Managing everyone's expectations isn't easy. The staff from Agape has done and continues to do an outstanding job balancing all these things. Yes, things go a bit wrong, someone may forget something etc, but it's how you handle and correct the mis steps that speaks to your true intent and here, Agape, is excellent. They have been honest if they miss something and they appropriately and mindfully push back when needed to the family when in the best interest of the patient. The staff from nursing, personal care, PT, volunteers, Chaplin's, visiting animals, etc have been amazing. My mom has nothing but praise for each. She looks forward to each of their visits as they are way more than just medical visits. Please keep in mind the difficult situation when thinking about an evaluation. When I place myself in their shoes or my moms, they are an outstanding, dedicated team of caregivers who truly care. What more can as for?
