My sweet Mom spent the last week of her life at Hendrick Hospice receiving minute-by-minute, exceptional care. The warmth, the respect, the cleanliness… everything is far and away above any other facility I have experienced. The staff is always available to you, providing everything and using every tool at their disposal to insure my mother and my family received all we needed. They gave of themselves and everything was top of the line. This team is committed to excellence. The water feature and outside area were just what we needed to reconnect with God through His beautiful creation. We spent much time in the gazebo talking to God and to each other. A big “Thank you” to the team and the facility for taking care of Mom as she crossed the River into the glory of her Savior. You all are second to none. God bless you.
