I want to thank Amara Hospice for everything they did.. They went above and beyond with taking care of my Dad.. Even before he was on board with hospice Jose RN help us find nursing home placement for my Dad, he did everything he could to help my Dad transition from Psychiatrist Hospital. So many nursing homes had already denied him.. Jose was the only one going above and beyond and contacting different liaison from different nursing homes.. Once Das was admitted to McAllen Transitional Nursing center he was also under the care of Amara Hospice. I want to thank all the staff from hospice who provided an excellent care..Mrs Maria thank you for always keeping my Das fresh and clean you have a caring heart and was very patient with him.. Patty RN thank you for always being on top of everything and calling me as soon as you had a called from nursing home. Thank you for always making sure my Dad was comfortable and making it possible for me to arrive on time and spend last hours with him.

This facility took care of my grandmother in her final days. We had a lot of family come in from out of town and none of us wanted her to be by herself at anytime. They were very welcoming of the entire family. When her time came they were passionate, caring, and very respectful. I was very happy my grandmother spent her last days comfortable in their care. They did everything to make sure she wasn't in any pain or discomfort. They also communicated very well with us (the family). I'd like to give my endless thanks to the doctor, and nurses that helped with the care of my grandmother.
