I cannot say enough wonderful things about our hospice team!!! (Vivian, CNA) Shamille, Tyrell, Liz, Alex and Diana! Caring for someone you love at the end of their life is incredibly difficult, emotional, and at times frightening, and having the right people beside you makes all the difference. From the beginning, our team has treated my mother with kindness, dignity, compassion, and respect. Just as importantly, they have listened to me as her caregiver. They listen to what I'm seeing, answer my questions, explain our options, and help me make decisions based on what will keep my mother peaceful and comfortable. There have been some very difficult days, particularly as her condition has changed, and I have never felt like we were simply another patient or another family on a list. Their compassion feels genuine. They understand that hospice isn't only about caring for the patient—it is also about supporting the family members who are trying to navigate something they have never had to navigate before. They have reassured me when I've questioned myself, respected the fact that I know my mother well, and helped me through situations that were overwhelming and scary. Having knowledgeable professionals who will listen, guide me, and calmly help me determine what she needs has given me tremendous peace of mind. God bless these wonderful people for making an incredibly difficult situation the best it can be. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart! I've made lifelong friends and I'm forever grateful for everything each one of you does!

Quy and Wanda were instrumental while getting my sister admitted to Hospice. They dealt personally with outside agencies to overcome roadblocks. I cannot thank them enough for their compassion.

My brother was a patient with Golden Rule. They were so kind, supportive, and made such a difficult and sad situation become a precious and loving experience. They were available whenever we needed them, and respectful of the time we needed to be alone with family.

Taylor is a wonderful resource for families navigating the hospice journey. Her contagious smile, compassionate heart, and genuine knowledge of hospice care immediately put people at ease. She takes the time to educate, listen, and support families during some of life’s most challenging moments. It’s clear that she truly cares about the people she serves, and her dedication makes a meaningful difference in our community. I highly recommend reaching out to Taylor if you have questions about hospice care or need guidance for a loved one.

Our family had an excellent experience with Golden Rule Hospice in providing end-of-life care for my stepmother. Everyone they sent to our house was caring and compassionate, and they provided my stepmom with great comfort during the last few weeks of her life. Highly recommended!

It’s difficult to put into words what this hospice team has meant to our family during one of the hardest times of our lives. From the very beginning, they treated my mother-in-law with such dignity, compassion, and genuine kindness. We are especially grateful to Heather, the social worker, and Harlee, her nurse, whose care and presence went above and beyond. Heather, your compassion, steady support, prayers, and guidance helped us navigate moments that felt overwhelming. You brought a sense of calm and understanding that made such a difference for our entire family. Harlee, your attentiveness, gentle care, and reassurance brought so much comfort—not only to her, but to all of us. Your kindness will not be forgotten. Every member of the team showed not only professionalism, but a level of warmth and humanity that made an incredible difference. Heather anticipated needs we didn’t even know to ask for and she was always patient in answering questions, no matter how many. While we are deeply saddened to be transitioning her care due to location, we are incredibly grateful for the support and compassion they have given us. They ensured she was comfortable and treated with dignity in her final days—something our family will never forget. With deepest gratitude, we wholeheartedly recommend Golden Rule Hospice to any family seeking compassionate, dignified end-of-life care. Their impact on our family and the diligent work especially from Heather as we had to make a quick change in care will never be forgotten. Even with us leaving this hospice, Heather continued to exemplify a true servant’s heart and advocated for us to get the best care for my husband’s mother.

The staff at Golden Rule Hospice are so kind and caring. My mother has been in their care for over a year which I know is specifically due to the holistic focus on her needs. Julia her nurse is so thoughtful, patient, with a great sense of humor! She is very responsive to outreaches and questions. Dionne her social worker has been so helpful with so many aspects of care and planning. My mother and her reminisce about being from NY and NJ often. She also has a wonderful sense of humor!! We could not have picked a better organization!

Vivian is an excellent CNA very detailed in caring for her residents. The care is done with love and compassion, as a Director when I see her entering in my neighborhood I know the job will be done. Golden Rule Hospice is amazing in every aspect of care. Shamille the RN that is over our residents is very professional, patient and knowledgeable in her role, as a nurse.

I cannot praise Golden Rule hospice enough. My sister was Diagnosed with stage 4 cervical cancer and had hospice services for about two weeks. Vivian our CNA and our Nurse Tyrell and our last nurse who was on call I think her name was LaTia. Also I want to mention the nurse who did the initial intake. The care that they administered to my Sister Meri was above and beyond. I cannot praise this agency enough. The care and respect that was given until the end was remarkable. Vivian was so wonderful with my sister and to see her deep concern and gentle care was amazing. They are all angels. Thank you all for taking care of my sister. If you need to obtain hospice care I highly recommend Golden Rule Hospice.

My team at Golden Rule Hospice is amazing. They are the kind and competent caregivers that love on my mother as much as I do. Our nurse Shamille is responsive and so helpful making sure we get all the meds we need. She’s also great and bringing comic relief to an otherwise impossible situation. Our chaplain Regina comes with wise words of comfort and beautiful prayers. Our social worker Elizabeth has helped us navigate all the systems including wound care services. And our aide Vivian breezes in three times as week leaving my mother feeling like she spent the day at a spa! Navigating the end of life is full of frustrations, sorrows, and pain. What I love most about this team is how they work together and no one ever says anything like “that’s not my job”. When I’m running low on supplies whoever is the next person to visit will bring them. This is the communication and coordination that makes this very hard season of life bearable. We had a choice of hospice companies and I’ve used another one in the past. Golden Rule Hospice is orders of magnitude better and our family feels so supported through this process.

We chose Golden Rule because of the stellar reviews, and from the moment Nicole stepped foot in our home, I felt a sense of ease I haven’t experienced since before my father’s terminal diagnosis in July 2025. This journey is hard beyond comprehension, but my father’s team at Golden Rule—particularly Tyrell, Vivian, and Liz—have truly stepped up. They prioritize his comfort. They are there for us. I won’t go into detail, but Tyrell, you staying longer to help my father this past Monday (3/16) was a lifeline for me. And Vivian, you always bring us everything we need. Your tenderness toward my dad during bathing and changing is such a relief, because I know he is in good, loving hands. Liz, you have gone out of your way to provide all the resources we’ve needed. I don’t know what else to say. My heart is broken. If you’re reading this and your heart is broken too, caring for a terminally ill loved one—look no further. Help is here.
