Why families call us
“We didn't know what hospice actually was until we read something like this. We waited too long.”
“The 3 a.m. calls are what I remember most. Having a nurse who actually answered — that was everything.”
“I wish someone had given us a checklist like this six months earlier. We would have made different choices.”
