Grane Hospice Care Customer Reviews

Here is what some of our families are saying about our Altoona Office Services.

"Although our time with this group was very short, the care and compassion experienced was very positive. Losing a loved one is never easy,, but with someone that seems to care like they did made it much more bearable. Thank you again for your support and help during this difficult time.. "

"Recently Grane Hospice provided care for my mom. I live in the Midwest and communicated with them via phone calls. Mom felt very comfortable with them and they provided loving care. My husband was in Hospice care and our team was wonderful! It takes very special people to work in hospice care. I am very thankful for the team who treated my mom with patience and kindnesss in her last weeks on this earth. At moms memorial service I was able to meet her hospice team. They are marvelous folks and I thank them from the bottom of my heart. God bless you!"

- Jamie Elder (Evelyn Scritchfield’s daughter)

"The value of a diamond is determined by 4 "C's"; cut, color, clarity, and carat. Grane Hospice's service can also be determined by 4 "C's"; compassion, commitment, caring, and comfort. Grane Hospice would be rated as the finest diamond. During a very difficult time they were a true advocate for our family due to the poor care our mother was receiving from a nursing facility. They were there for our mother and for us each step of this difficult journey and they continue to contact us months after her departure. Although the staff and volunteers were assigned blocks of time not one of them ever watched the clock, their concern was solely on the comfort of our mother, many stayed well beyond their assigned time and stopped in when they were in the area. All associated with Grane Hospice are truly a blessing."

"Thank you Grane Hospice for all the care you gave my father as well as our family. We had Grane Hospice involved with my father and his care for about 9 months. During that time he received exemplary care, physically and emotionally. Grane was always available to our calls and when my father was at the end of his journey, they stepped in almost full time.I even attended grief counseling sessions several months later that Grane provided. We are so deeply appreciative. I especially want to thank Pastor Dave for his time and the connection he made with my dad. He truly gave my dad peace."
