The staff at VNS of East Northport were compassionate and really helped us as well as our mother in her final days. Although we were only there for a few days, the staff were conscientious and understanding in anything and everything we needed as a family. Our mother was comfortable and most importantly not in pain. We highly recommend to anyone who has to unfortunately go through this.
My mother came here at the end of her battle with cancer which had now spread to her brain… she was only here for a few days but I’m so glad she was there at the end of her life. The hospice house was beautiful and felt like a home. The staff was friendly and very caring. I only had the opportunity to meet Dan and Brianna directly but they were both so compassionate and helpful and kind. It made a scary situation feel better and made a choice my siblings and I questioned feel like the right one. Thank you to everyone here for making one of the hardest days of our life a little easier.
The time was short but there was nothing short about the exceptionalism of this facility. They treated my grandmother, myself and my family with the utmost respect, care and compassion. It is such a beautiful facility. If you are looking for place for your loved one to spend their final days and do so with the utmost respect and dignity, this is it! Thank you Erika, the nurses and office staff for being so good to me. I will never forget you guys!
Very compassionate care. Nurses and staff are above and beyond with patients. Very clean, staff is always available to talk with family members, highly recommended without any reservation. Best care for my mother from Hospice House. Thank you so much.
Homey, intimate & comfortable upscale surroundings for Mom’s last day with our family. Staff was so compassionate! They made the end-of-life situation as gentle as possible. A kitchen, solarium, 2 living room areas, & a patio provide space for privacy. They provide counseling services for 13 months post-loved one’s stay there for family. There’s a convertible chair/bed for someone to sleep bedside. Rooms at rear of building had a view of trees (vs. parking lot); just what Mom wanted. The sun emerged through the trees for her last hour with us.
