From the owner: DaySpring Hospice is a locally-owned and managed hospice agency serving the Wiregrass area since…read more2003. We integrate and address the diverse, seen and unseen needs of patients and their families. The emphasis is on comfort care (pain and symptom control), maintaining dignity, and increasing quality of life, rather than curative treatment. Hospice recognizes that every individual is different, therefore the hospice team creates an individualized plan of care to meet the specific needs and wishes of the patient and their family. Hospice staff members are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Hospice care can also be provided in other locations such as assisted living facilities, nursing homes, or other long-term care facility. Our "Circle of Care" concept surrounds the patient with support, ensuring the highest possible quality of life. DaySpring Hospice provides support to natural helpers, including family, friends, personal physicians and members of religious or social groups. The "Circle of Care" Teams are dedicated to helping the patient maintain his/her dignity, increasing their quality of life and providing comfort - not only for physical symptoms, but also for their emotional and spiritual needs.

Do not allow your loved one to use this Hospice. I was required to use the star rating, but I…read moredidn't want to even leave 1 star. My grandmother used this Hospice for 1 benefit period. They were terrible! Hospice is supposed to keep their patient's comfortable and pain free. Not this Hospice. My grandmother has a Glioblastoma that took up roughly 50% of her brain. Glioblastomas are very aggressive tumors. She was constantly complaining of being in pain, and on top of that, when she wasn't complaining of pain, anyone with medical knowledge could tell by looking at her that she was. Her hospice nurse did NOTHING to change her pain medications. They spent roughly 5 minutes with her each visit and by State guidelines they are required to spend a minimum of 30 minutes with each patient. I know this because I work for hospice as well. After getting crappy care for a month my family and I decided to transfer her to a different hospice. Transferring a patient from one hospice to another allows the patient to continue within the same benefit period, under Medicare. With Medicare, patients are given 2 benefit periods lasting 90 days. If a patient transfers they stay in the benefit period that they are in. Compassus DISCHARGED my grandmother, forcing her to give up one of her benefits and placing her in her second benefit period. Not only did they discharge her, but they were non-compliant with the hospice that we placed her with. NO ONE SHOULD EVER USE THIS HOSPICE! They are a joke and need to be shut down! A bit of advice to all that are unaware, YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO CHOOSE WHATEVER HOSPICE YOU WANT AND YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO TRANSFER AT ANY TIME YOU WANT. If you want the best care for your loved one, DO NOT use this Hospice!
