My aunt didn’t particulary care for the hospice worker. She said she could see my grandpa’s window as she pulled out of the parking lot. The nurse was watching them as though to be sure they were gone. They barely were home when they recieved the call that my grandpa had died. My family always wonders if she put something in his IV or put a pillow over his face to end it quick. We have no proof of such a thing, and there was no autopsy. We just weren’t impressed with hospice.
I have had a similar experience with two of my relatives. I wouldnt let a cat be cared for by hosptice nurses. In one case, I didnt even realize what happened until I thought about it later.
I’m sorry to hear that. Some people, as evidenced by this thread, seem to have had wonderful experiences with hospice. I see in the “Obituary” section of the newspaper that contributions can be made to hospice. We certainly didn’t feel that way when my grandpa died. Do you mind sharing one of your experiences? If you don’t want to, that’s ok.
