Worst experience my mom and I have both ever had. When you sign on with them, they say everything…read moreyou want to hear. They told us a nurse would be by the following day after hospice started. He was home on Tuesday nurse didn't show until Friday. My mom called Wednesday and the nurse said I'll be there tomorrow (Thursday). Nurse was a no show and no call. My mom had to call and ask what happened, "oh they double booked me I'll be there today". My step father is dying. We need support. No support at all. Completely absent. Have yet to receive any medications from hospice since my father has been home, which is now one week. They say you will have a HHA 3x week - that is a lie. Again, my stepfather has been home a week, not a single visit or call to confirm when a HHA will be out. Watching my father slowly die has been hard, but having to watch my mother go through this experience with Halifax Hospice has really been soul crushing. I haven't stopped crying. I would not wish this on anyone. Hospice is supposed to provide comfort to patient and families. There has been zero comfort. He has been home one week and we've had no meds to comfort the patient. None. He has been suffering. This is what we will remember as his last days. What a traumatic experience. This man deserves so much better. This will haunt me forever

WARNING! Stay away from Halifax Hth Hospice. Hubby was with them with TERMINAL Lewy Body Dementia…read morefor almost 2 years and they were consistently INCOMPETENT and DISCHARGED Hubby Effective that night.... because of a disagreement I had with Social Worker who was ALSO Incompetent and unable to provide Respite for Me (as Caregiver)...EVER. Left us with No Meds, Supplies or Equipment. We Appealed Discharge with Acentra Health and WON ...and they still Refused to provide CARE for my Husband. Suggest you try Advent Health Hospice instead. Caregivers and sick patients don't need to deal with Incompetence and being left in a dangerous situation without Meds and Equipment without having the chance to procure the Meds/Equipment. I was told by Social Worker that the Halifax Health Hospice Care Centers would NOT accept LEwy Body Dementia patients! HORRIBLE CARE!!! PROTECT YOURSELF and YOUR LOVED ONE.

My dad stayed here these past few days before his passing. It was the hardest thing our family has…read moreever experienced, but the staff at this Hospice were genuinely so incredible and sweet. They cared for my dad with gentleness and comforted us with lighthearted banter & keeping us informed on all that we were seeing happen. They made my dad comfortable, while he was still talking he said his pain was a 10/10, they made sure that he got more medicine to make him comfortable. The environment was clean, and the rooms were homey. There is a garden that was very calming to our minds when we needed to step out for a bit. From the bottom of my heart, any of you that cared for Larry in room 8. Thank you, you all truly have such beautiful, sweet souls. God bless you all.

Today she never showed up and we had to call the place and ask where is she and they were just like "Oh she can't come today sorry. I'm trying to look for someone else." Which wasn't true because it's been an hour and they never once have called us back. They're liars. We had somewhere to be and now one of our family members is going to have to come thanks to this stupid useless company. We're not even going to bother calling them again. The girl that we had was always late but she was good to our family member but she had long nails that could have cut his skin. It was unsanitary. Never again will we be using this company. No thank you...
