We enrolled our mother into Adventist hospice service because we had great results from their wound…read morecare doctor and nurses. We knew hospice is an end of life service that is supposed to ensure a peaceful and and comfortable end of life. Our experience was terrible. Our mother did not respond to their normal drug protocol and their drugs caused her to be very agitated and irritable. This went on for several days until we had one of their nurses come that realized this was not normal and even made their MD listen to her over her cellphone. She was very good and stayed with us until she finally got her to calm down. This was a terrible experience for our mother and our family. I guess our mom's case was very unusual for them but our family was left with a horrible memory of her final days on earth and death. I'm sorry but I can not recommend Adventist hospice for any family that has a loved one near the end of life. Richard - Stockton California

If someone recommends that you or your loved one go on hospice with this "non-profit" run for the…read morehills!! Although their staff members are full of smiles and will offer many free goodies, do not be fooled! Even if they promise that you will be able to continue your current medications and medical interventions while on Hospice, don't believe a word. Make no mistake, this hospice is about DEATH. It isn't about living life to the fullest. It may not be a bad idea for someone who really is days away from dying, but it certainly is an absolute nightmare for someone who wants to die a NATURAL death in GOD'S time.

I am super irritated that this is the second time the Hope Chest has been picky about what they…read morechose to accept as donations. I am not donating poor quality items. The items are in great to excellent shape. My first experience with them as far as donations was when I needed a couch to be picked up. I heard they would pick up items. When I called they gave me the third degree and acted like it had to be brand new for them to pick it up. My couch was perfectly fine to donate and the family who received it was more than happy. Because in the end, I told Hope Chest to just forget it! They obviously didn't want my donation. Well, today I called ahead of time and the person I talked to said, "Make sure you don't have a truck load of donations right before closing!" She didn't say anything about them not accepting toys of any kind. I would not have wasted a trip. I also agree with some of the other posts, their prices are pretty high for a thrift store. Yes, sometimes the manager will work with you. But I don't like to haggle. I would rather just see a good/fair price, pick it up and take it home. I also wish they would have student/teacher discount day like some of the other thrift stores have. It would be nice. :)

DO NOT USE THIS AGENCY Medical and Physical Support…read morePain & Symptom Management (Grade C): Failed to warn about high sensitivity to Morphine/Ativan in a nearly 100-year-old patient; resulted in two days of over-sedation. Medical Equipment (Grade D): Unnecessary "bundled" equipment arrived without transparency. Crucially, delivered an unsafe, bed with 40-year-old design bed with malfunctioning manual rails, leading to a patient fall and injury. Medications (Grade C): Late-night deliveries (after 8 PM) and inadequate supply for basic needs like constipation. Personal Care (Grade C): Aide was inflexible regarding scope of care, refusing basic help with a meal despite the patient's physical weakness. Emotional and Spiritual Support Counseling (Grade F): Minimal contact and zero emotional support. The social worker was dismissive, suggested the patient use briefs instead of the bathroom for caregiver convenience, and eventually stopped visits entirely, citing the VA as a reason to disengage. Caregiver and Family Assistance Emergency Response (Grade F): A two-hour nurse response time following a stroke. The responding nurse was unable to answer questions, used a CPAP instead of required oxygen, and failed to check swallowing safety until prompted. Communication (Grade D): Lack of compassion and poor coordination. Management was unavailable on weekends, and formal complaints to the Director of Nursing went unacknowledged. Administrative Deficits: Reliance on disruptive phone calls rather than a modern patient portal or written care plan. No consistency in staffing and a failure to respect the primary caregiver's work schedule for coordination.
