Orange Hospice truly exceeded our expectations. They explained all of our questions and gave us emotional support. We were always assured that we received the highest level of care. Also, we were impressed by their compassion and knowledge which they provided us during a difficult time.Thank you so much especially to Nat and Joy and the rest of the team for the care you gave to my mother and our family.

I can’t say enough good things about "Orange Hospice". Their team is incredibly professional and compassionate. From the experienced office staff to the exceptional nurses, everyone went above and beyond to support our family during a difficult time. The office team was always responsive and on top of everything whenever we needed assistance.Their 24-hour hotline was a lifesaver—available anytime we had urgent concerns or needed guidance. It gave us real peace of mind knowing help was always just a phone call away.When my mother was discharged from the hospital, Orange Hospice coordinated everything flawlessly. They made sure her apartment was fully equipped with all the necessary medical supplies, equipment, and medications before she even arrived. Their efficiency and attention to detail were truly impressive.What stood out most was how they treated my mother—not just as a patient, but as a person. Their care was warm, personal, and deeply respectful. It made her feel valued and comfortable, which meant the world to us.I strongly recommend orange Hospice to your loved ones who needs hospice care.

I didn't know what to expect with hospice, however, I was in search of a lifeline due to my mother's sudden decline due to dementia. I stumbled upon Orange Hospice and was very fortunate. They were compassionate and responsive beyond my expectations. Their services, of which there are many, provided a great relief.

Through volunteering with Orange Hospice, I truly can see how much they care for their patients. They are so incredibly quick to provide more volunteer services to patients when they are able to, be communicative with the patient's family, and overall just be the best support they can throughout this experience. The staff is incredibly nice and truly cares, and it reflects in their work.

저희 어머니가 오렌지 호스피스에 도움을 받았습니다. 어머니를 돌봐주신 간호원 한분 한분이 얼마나 정성으로 어머니를 돌봐주시던지 너무 감사했습니다.환자를 대하는 태도가 의무가 아닌 마음을 다해 아픔이 없는지 불편한 것은 없는지 너무 세세하게 친절하게 섬겨주셨습니다.또한 다른 필요들도 메니져와 바로 연락이 되어서 무엇이든지 공급을 원할하개 해 주셔서 불편함이 전혀 없었습니다..오렌지 호스피스에 진심으로 감사드립니다.

All the staff were nice answering all the questions that we had regardless how many times we called. They went over the process multiple times until we are fully comfortable. They also collaborated with Woodbridge Pharmacy to expedite the medication delivery services. I highly recommend to everyone who are considering hospice care for their loving ones. This would be the last place for my loved to spend time. Thank you!

Quiero expresar mi más profundo gracias a Orange Hospice por dar los mejores cuidados a mi abuelita durante sus últimas semanas. Desde el momento q ellos nos brindaron sus servicios estaba claro q querían garantizar la comodidad y dignidad de mi abuelita. Todo el equipo fue muy amables y profesionales y se nota la compasión q cada uno tiene. Las enfermeras eran muy atentas y cariñosas y siempre iban más allá para asegurarse q mi abuelita se sintiera lo más cómoda posible. El equipo también nos apoyó emocionalmente, y ofrecieron consuelo y orientación a cada paso. Gracias a ellos pudo morir en paz rodeada de amor y familia y en su propio hogar. Mi familia y yo siempre estaremos agradecidos por su atención y el apoyo q recibimos. Nuevamente muchas gracias Orange Hospice.

예상보다는 짧았던 3주였지만 최대한 통증 없이 잘 보살펴 주신 호스피스 선생님들, 자원봉사자분들께 깊은 감사드립니다.자원봉사자, 닥터, 간호사님 외 모든 스탭분들의 따뜻한 마음과 세심한 배려를 짧은 시간에도 충분히 느낄 수 있었습니다.그리고 저희가족들에게 해주신 따뜻한 말들 덕분에 모두 마음을 추스리고 가시는 길 잘 보내드릴 수 있었다고 합니다.또한 환자를 대함에 있어 병을 해결하고자 하는 목적의식이 강했습니다. 하지만 말기 암 환자의 가족으로서 짧게나마 지내보고, 또 의료진, 자원봉사자분들을 뵈면서 환자나 보호자에게 따뜻하게 말 한마디 건네는 것과, 마음을 쓰는 것이 치료 못지않게 중요하다는 것을 느꼈습니다.다시 한 번, 편안히 떠나실 수 있도록 도와주신 오랜지호스피스 모든 분들께 진심으로 감사의 마음을 전하며, 그 헌신적인 노력에 항상 응원과 존경을 보냅니다.

I've worked as a nurse for quite some time, and I'm a passionate home care nurse. I've worked for many different home health and hospice agencies, and one of my favorite agencies to work with is Orange Hospice. I truly admire their philosophy of reaching out to the community and listening to what people say about what they want for their care. Moreover, they do put their patients as a top priority, and I see the difference that they are making in other people's lives. I'm glad to have found a good agency to introduce to people who need hospice services.

I positive .my Aunt would have never received the level of care that Orange Hospice has provided. I only need to text Nat and literally within hours I have whatever meds, weekly texts from.the urses in detail listing all her vitals, her conversation , her well.being alert etc. I.consider myself and our family extremely fortunate to.have been provided this level of care. Believe I have heard horror stories from my friends concerning their loved ones. My Aunt just celebrated her 96th birthday omOctober 18th. That would not have been possible withoutOrange Hospice. A shout out to Kathy for her detsiled weekly assessments . You have definitely extended her life. Thanks to all of you
