I cannot express how deeply we appreciate each and every staff member and volunteer of The CT Hospice. My brother Craig passed in July 10,2024 after a short but intense battle with pancreatic cancer. He was 63 and none of us were ready for this. Each and every staff member we encountered during his month long stay were wonderful, compassionate , dedicated and sincere in their care. The medical team gave us the opportunity to spend quality time with Craig and always were respectful and treated him with dignity, kindness and respect.
My brother said he felt special here and would share stories about all the staff he had interacted with and grew to care about them all. I am forever grateful for this place and more so for the wonderful people who work and volunteer here. You are truly angels 👼.

I cannot think I can say enough nice things about Connecticut Hospice.

My mother was only there for a very short time, but the staff there were always very nice, very professional, and treated both her and me with dignity and respect.

It meant a lot to me that when I came in every day to visit my mother, there was always a volunteer at her bedside to keep her company

Thank you for all that you do

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Hospice. My Grandmother was here then 3 short weeks later my father. The kindness, caring and compassion they showed to not only our family but all the other patients was amazing. The fact that both my Grandmother and my dad were able to spend an entire day outside surrounded by family was the best part. No visitor limits if patient is brought outside. My dad was on oxygen and the nurses carried multiple tanks out to us so he could stay outside. Due to Covid only 4 people at a time can visit bedside BUT you can switch all day. And family is welcome to sleep there, they will bring you a cot or recliner. Also as long as pets are up to date on vaccines they are welcome to visit. In the middle of the night nurses were beyond quiet even when making rounds you barely heard them. The entire staff was so comforting in the most heartbreaking time.

My wife entered Hospice at Home on June 14th, 2023, after suffering several setbacks with her swallowing issues due to her long-term illness. When she passed in March of this year, they were right there to help with end-of-life support.
We were familiar with the program from my mother, who was a patient in 2018.
We felt total confidence in your entire staff from day one. The main nurses were fabulous. The rest of the nursing staff, especially your night nurse helped so much during the last few weeks of her life by allaying the fears of our family members who were taking care of her during that time. Our social worker gave us exactly the support we needed during her visits with us and was an excellent sounding board and confidant.
Every dealing with the staff, from the field people to the office staff was very professional, courteous and most of all, kind and caring.
Our whole family wishes to thank everyone in your organization for their kindness and caring for the care they took of her. Her journey was made that much easier by the support she received by Hospice.
I plan on taking advantage of their Bereavement programs as well.
Simply put, you cannot find a better, more caring program anywhere. Too bad I can only assign 5 stars, because they would rate it.

The loving care that my mother received from the entire staff at Ct. Hospice, where she spent her final days, was exceptional. Without exception, the Doctors nurses, aides, porters, volunteers, and administrative support staff cared for her, as well as my family, with compassion and dignity.

The family of Kenneth Goguen bears witness to the kind, gentle & all inclusive care given to Ken the four days he was at Ct Hospice. We also were given care, understanding & answers to any & all questions in a loving way. These questions are probably asked by everyone who has had a loved one go there but they never lost a second of patience & even provided reading material for all of us to understand what was happening to our loved one. It’s the most peaceful place I have ever seen, both for the patient and the family. Every room has an extremely awesome view of the bay & the ocean. It must be really beautiful when the gardens are in bloom. Someone was always coming in to check Ken’s condition. He was rotated 3 times per day & night. They let us wheel him outside for some fresh air Sunday & we swear he opened his eyes for a few seconds recognizing the sun & fresh air. He passed peacefully yesterday, 3/28/23 surrounded by his loving family & caring staff took time to get him ready for a final viewing. Our thanks to Ct Hospice for all they have done & continue to do to help us through this difficult time. If I could, I would give them a 10 star review.

My dad was a patient at CT Hospice for less than 5 days. During that time he received the best care we had experienced in almost 3 weeks during his final stage of life. My gratitude for being able to honor my dads wishes is beyond measure. All he asked for was to respect, dignity and honor until it was God's time to take him. This was made possible by the amazing staff and volunteers at CT Hospice. It took one person to stop their busy day to listen to my plea for help when no one else would. My dad left us with dignity and respect that he deserved. Thank you for not only giving him peace but for giving me peace for being able to honor his last wish for him and my family. I wish I could give you more stars in your rating. As I look up the stars at night and ponder, I'm so grateful for the Hospice Team of Stars we met during his final days.

Love is the answer to all equations and everybody there is my family and when you love them truly you do everything for them while they’re on planet earth amen 🙏

My husband, Thomas, was in the hospice twice. Both times they treated him with compassion. At end of life they treated him gently. I will always be grateful to them.

Caroline LaMorte

My grandmother spent her final days at Connecticut Hospice. I was overwhelmed with the kind, compassionate care that she received. She spent her last day with her bed facing the window looking over the water; and even though she was not awake, my family appreciated the serene setting. It helped us all feel some peace around her passing. We would highly recommend Connecticut Hospice.
