What Our Families Say
What you all do is amazing. Thank you for all your help, support and guidance for my mother and family. It was such a gift and a blessing to be with my mom and take care of her and to have her at home with my daughter and I. We will never forget your kindness. Thank you! ~ Patient's family
The services my husband and I received during his last stages of life were invaluable to us. His primary wish at the end was to be at home. I was very afraid that I couldn't grant that wish, but with the help of Pikes Peak Hospice he was able to be at home, where he was comfortable, until the very end. I am also truly thankful for the grief counseling that you provided to me. ~ Patient's wife
Thank you for all your assistance during this time and for the care of my mother. There are not enough compliments to give for the support, knowledge, bedside manner, courtesy and kindness. ~ Patient's daughter
