Then your experience has definitely been different from mine and that’s good. My brother owns a chain of them, but I don’t know about their operations. When our mother died recently, she didn’t want anything to do with them and he honored her request. When my sister-in-law was with her mom in her final hours, they asked her to leave, which I think was awful. Her mom died within minutes. They said she was just hanging on for her daughter; I think they killed her and didn’t want a witness.
What was wrong with saying "no"?
I think they killed her and didn’t want a witness.
See above.
In my experience they were wonderful, caring people doing an extremely difficult and stressful job. We were with our loved one right until the very end. At all times the Hospice staff were caring, compassionate, and extremely professional.
Some folks around here need to reread their Bibles, especially the part about 'easing the passing' of those getting ready to go into the Great Beyond.
