My dad passed at 6:15 am on the 25th of June 2026. I want to thank The Homeplace and the staff for their amazing care and sympathy making this as easy as it could be. It takes special people to do this kind of thing at the level they do. Megan (I hope I'm spelling your name correctly)if you read this thank you.
Our Assisted Living community has proudly partnered with HOET for the past seven years during my time here, and their legacy of caring for families extends far beyond that. The level of care they provide to our residents and their loved ones is truly exceptional, reflecting the highest standards of excellence. Hospice care is one of the most important decisions a family will make during an incredibly difficult and emotional time. It requires a provider that is not only highly skilled, but also deeply compassionate and committed to meeting each individual’s needs with dignity and respect. HOET consistently demonstrates all of these qualities. Their services are unmatched in our area, and their staff is a true testament to the compassion, dedication, and professionalism they bring to every family they serve. We are incredibly grateful to have a partner we can trust and rely on during life’s most sensitive moments. Thank you, HOET, for being a provider we can always count on.
We are incredibly grateful for the compassionate care the inpatient hospice team provided to our dad during one of the hardest times in our lives. Every nurse, aide, and staff member treated him with dignity, comfort, and kindness while also supporting our family with patience and understanding. Their compassion brought us peace during such a difficult journey. We highly recommend them to anyone needing hospice care for a loved one. Thank you for everything you did for our family.
