I'll say that some aspects of the experience, like when I first called and inquired about finances/insurance, weren't great, and the first nurse who helped my family member was not warm, but once I asked for a switch in caregivers, it was an amazing experience. I would suggest that staff be highly trained and vetted in hospice care. Overall though, and especially when it mattered, the staff was warm, kind, attuned and supportive. I'm very grateful.Posted on Tina Lee HadariTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. There are not enough words to capture the immense gratitude I have for everyone at the Connecticut Hospice. After suffering a severe hemorrhagic cerebellar stroke and spending time in the ICU at Yale-New Haven hospital, my father was transitioned to CT Hospice, where he passed away after a 5-day stay. While his stay was brief, it was very intense, and every single staff member, from the doctors to the nurses to the aides to the volunteers, treated us with loving care and sincere compassion. My mother and I felt deeply supported and respected, my father’s pain was managed carefully, and the beautiful room and surroundings overlooking the water gave us all a sense of peace and calm that we could not feel while we were at the hospital. My mother and I will forever be grateful to CT Hospice and for the way they allowed us to say goodbye to my father with love, dignity, and grace.Posted on Brigid KernanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Wonderful staff and organizationPosted on eileen simonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The process once Connecticut Hospice stepped in was phenomenal. I live out of state and my father resided in an assisted living and each person I dealt with was kind, compassionate and articulate. The communication was constant. I honestly do not know how I could have handled the death of my elderly father without their care and support. Alicia, our nurse was probably the most competent and caring professional I have ever dealt with. Jennifer, the social worker, was also amazing. Alvin, a companion aide and Ocean were also great resources. I know Hospice may not be available to all and I am beyond grateful my father was the recipient of these incredible services. It would be amazing if all of our elderly loved ones could pass on with such grace and dignity with all of their needs being addressed. Thank you.
