In patients' words

"She had just been made comfortable in her bed when the team of Alive nurses and techs — I prefer to call them 'earth angels' — swooped in with kind words and the most tender care."

Lydia Lenker regarding her mother's care at Alive Hospice

"I regret we went with Kindred Hospice Nashville for my husband with ALZ. We were assigned a nurse... that was totally irresponsible... Within 60 hours of his death, she was ordering lots of meds saying he was just ‘ill’ when he needed to be on morphine for pain."
