My wife died four months ago, after a long five year decline with Parkinson's disease and other…read moreserious health issues. As her full-time caregiver, I came to understand the meaning of the long, slow goodbye. Fortunately, she was in Amedisys home hospice care for the last four months of her life. They were caring, knowledgeable and practical in their care for her and for me. They provided a hospital bed, an oxygen tank and other medical equipment. Nurses visited as needed, daily at first, three days a week as her condition stabilized and then daily again as the end approached. They supplied medicine to calm her and to relieve her pain and instructed me on how and when to use it. I used the 24/7 phone number many times to make requests or to get information. Throughout, an aide came daily to give her a bath, which she loved as it made her feel much better. I also found the visits by the social worker and the chaplain to be helpful as well. She died peacefully at home with her family around her, as was my goal, and not by herself in some institution. Those last four months were very trying for me as well, and I give Amedysis nurses and staff much credit for helping me through it. I give Amedisys the highest possible rating, for their caring, professionalism and hard work.

It…read morewas not only a very rough time for all of us, but unimaginably so for my Grandmother who was married to my Grandfather for 66+ years and by his bedside every moment for the past 2 years he was sick. My Grandmother is 87 and is one of the most amazing caretakers in the world, she always puts others her needs before herself and has dedicated her life to caring for her family. She was very worried when she found out that she needed help at home caring for my Grandfather as she had heard so many terrible stories about home care aids from friends and other family members. When the decision was made to use visiting angels and have them come to help her she was worried yet beyond impressed once she met the aides that came to help out and keep her company. All of them took such care of my Grandfather as though he was part of their family. They were extremely professional, caring, humble, helpful, dedicated, empathetic, very patient, kind, and truly cared. My Grandmother felt like they were part of the family and trusted them wholeheartedly. During this very difficult time they were there providing support and laughter to our entire family even at the end. They went above and beyond, were wonderful company and some of the most inspiring and compassionate people I have ever met. A very special thank you to Elaine and Richard, you are both such amazing people and we truly thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Sincerely, Tintle Family

I had an extremely traumatic experience with Alvita a few years ago and now that I've just received…read morea letter about patient information being compromised in a hacking, I'm compelled to warn others about trusting loved ones in the care of this organization. When my mom was returning home after a debilitating stroke, we decided to bite the bullet and go with Alvita - which was more expensive than others but long calls with their rep assured me my mom would be in amazing hands and I'd be able to rest easy and enjoy "being a daughter again." The *best* of the three aides they sent was notably cold upon meeting her, and one whom my mom told me would literally snap and curse loudly when lifting her in the hoyer and doing her duties, making her feel like a burden and making her feel on eggshells in her own home. After that, it became a full nightmare. On the morning of a doctor appointment, where the aide was asked to have mom ready to go for her wheelchair transport, the aide literally left in the middle of changing mom - without any reason, warning or notice. I thought she was taking out garbage but she genuinely just ghosted. As a result, mom missed an important appointment with her oncologist while laying there undressed and helpless. That wasn't even the worst. The final aide, who didn't last long due to her cat phobia (side note, when reaching out to Alvita, their solution: maybe just get rid of the cats), we learned had been putting dirty, soiled/food-filled pots and pans away in mom's cupboards. As a result, the aide who took over discovered maggots everywhere and we had to replace a ton of mom's cookware. (I would share a photo if it wasn't so gross.) The recklessness and negligence of this company and its hiring decisions is unreal. Thankfully my mom had me to advocate and look out for her through all of this, but it's terrifying to think about folks without a support system who are on their own in the hands of people like these and sharing their homes with them. I highly recommend directing your loved ones anywhere else. Or making sure you check in frequently on the welfare of anyone you already happen to have in Alvita's system.
