Reviews for Lutheran Medical Center Hospice

Suzie Cates — My Mom was only at Hospice for a few hours before she died but the staff was very kind and I felt that they were very compassionate. They came in quite often to check on her and attentive to making sure she was as comfortable as possible. I was very grateful for their professional care.

Mona Hebert — The nurses, doctors and staff at Collier (Luthern) Hospice were amazing. During my family's difficult time they were there for my dad and our whole family. My dad was able to pass away peacefully and with dignity. The nurses treated my dad with compassion and their only goal was for him to be comfortable. They went out of their way to make sure my sister and I had a place to sleep in the same room as our dad (warm blankets and pillows too). The went above and beyond in every way possible. Thank you for the care, compassion and respect you gave to our dad and our family!

Marcey H — If I could rate this with negative stars I would as it doesn’t even deserve 1star!! This facility is AWFUL,my mother was there less than 24 hours and we had her moved immediately out of there. Nurses are rude to patients, rough with their patients did not care for her. Extremely rude to family members! My mother went to this facility because she had terminal cancer. Nurses did not come in to check on her every hour as they stated they do when we toured the facility. Our family was there for 6 hours visiting my mother, in that 6 hours the nurse only came in one time to see her, that was only because we went to find a nurse and request her to come in . Her pain wasn’t controlled by the nurse or doctor. Their response “it takes time”. Which we found hard to believe as she was in the Hosptial for 3 weeks prior to the transfer to this facility and her pain was being manage just fine there, and all her medical records were transferred with her. The nurses refused to give her anything to drink. When I questioned them about it and asked for a glass of water so I could give her a drink the nurse stated “she can’t drink anything and hasn’t for 3 days” (remind you she just arrived at this facility a few hours prior) I informed her she has been drinking and eating jello just fine at the hospital everyday and even that morning that before she was just transferred from the hospital to Lutheran. I went to the vending machine to purchase my mother something to drink, which she drank over half in 10 min. When another family member arrived later that evening, again no fluids had been given to my mother, she was in severe pain. Nurse button was on the desk no where close for her to reach it to even be able to call the nurse. The nurse was very confrontational with the family member and told him she is going to die in a couple of days anyways.
I requested to speak with a case manager to have her removed from the facility, her response was it’s Saturday you won’t find any facility to admit her and good luck finding a better place then this. Needless to say we had her transferred out with in 2 hours after the conversation. I can’t express enough don’t send your loved ones to Lutheran Hospice the worst place I have ever been to. The building it’s self and location is very nice but the care is AWFUL!!

Susan McVicker — What an amazing place! The love and care of the living and the dying is extraordinary, respectful, caring. We felt so comforted by the care our loved one received and so supported after she died. Having a social worker at our fingertips helped pave the way for all we needed to do after her passing. Chaplains magically appeared when we needed them the most. Very grateful for Lutheran Hospice!

Kris Thayer — The BEST place for anyone to get compassionate, caring, end-of-life support and care. My mom had their support at home until her last 3 days and all staff, whether home care or inpatient were incredibly wonderful to help my mom pass peacefully, in spite of a very painful and aggressive cancer. I highly recommend the Collier Hospice Center.
