The team at IHH (Israel Hospice House) went above and beyond both with home care as well as respite (and eventual end of life) care for my Mom, Judy. As well as their loving and compassionate care for Mom, they also took care and watched after the well being of my Dad-and the rest of our family when the time came. I can't thank the dedicated professionals at Israel enough...just to shout out a few names (IHH team-please forgive me if I didn't meet you), Cari, Shannon, Delilah, Monique, Lori, all the Susans (I truly hope you know what I mean, love you all). Angie, Lisa & Cindy who I met at my folks’ home…again, all our thanks. The facility is second to none, and the peaceful surroundings (including a deer sighting or two) added to the ability to cope with Mom's final days. Again-there's no way to thank these dedicated professionals enough.

I would be amiss if I did not share my experience with Mary Greeley Hospice. It was such a great experience to work along side Jody (Social Worker) and Kelly (RN) with a client that we both shared in common. Both Jody and Kelly were very attentive and detail orientated and made sure my client had and understood all the information she needed to make an informed decision regarding hospice care. Both were on top of my clients requests and made sure everything was in order from paperwork to services my client wanted. As a home care provider I could not have asked for better service and communication from Jody and Kelly, they were wonderful. Thank you! -Kari Romero, Visiting Angels, Ames
