When our family decided to put our mother on hospice , it was a hard decision to make . The first day Trayonna Latin C.N.A. came into our home , My mother felt comfortable with her . When Trayonna was on vacation, our mother wasn’t the same until she returned, Trayonna have a warm calm spirit , she treats her as if she is caring for her grandmother. Thank you for all do!!!

I want to thank the Golden Rule Hospice for everything they did for my dad. I have never encountered such kind and wonderful group of people. Especially Chris. He was always attentive, compassionate, and his willingness to respond at any moment in taking care of my dad. You could not have asked for better. He even checked in on my mom after my dad died to see how she was doing. Stanley always brought such joy, peace, and comfort to both my parents when he came by to check on them. He would pray and sing and they would just smile with happiness. Andre would take such good care of my dad in his cleaning and making sure he had his supplies. I really liked how the Golden Rule Hospice care checked in weekly to see that everything was going well. Just can’t say enough about this group and what they meant to our family. So thankful GOD lead us to them.

David R.

We were given Golden Rule Hospice as a useful resource to help with our elderly parents. At first I was hesitant because of the stigma attached to hospice. But once the staff came to our house to talk to us about hospice and how they help it made it easier. When Whitney came to the house to set everything up she was the nicest and most helpful person and was always there for help and support. The nurses that helped our parents were so very compassionate, Penny was amazing and caring to both my mom and dad. She was very supportive and explained everything to us when we had questions. Andre who assisted in showering and shaving our dad was an awesome man that cared about how my dad looked and felt. I can’t say enough positive and positive things about using Golden Rule they became family and are an amazing support for our family in the most difficult time of our lives. I would highly recommend to use them. Great an amazing staff!!!

Sabrina H.

Vivian has been a true blessing to our family. She is incredibly attentive, consistently goes above and beyond, and has genuinely become like family to us. Her kindness and sincerity shine through in everything she does you can feel that her motivation comes from a deep love for people, both patients and their families. If I could give her 1,000 stars, I absolutely would!Golden Rule Hospice truly lives up to its name treating others the way you'd want to be treated. The entire team has been wonderful, and I want to also recognize Shamille and Elizabeth for their compassion and dedication. I highly recommend Golden Rule Hospice to anyone seeking compassionate care, unwavering support, and peace of mind during such a difficult time. They have truly made a meaningful difference in our lives.

Janet A.

Golden Rule has the greatest group of people that I have ever encountered. They took care of my partner till he passed. They took excellent, loving, compassionate care of him. He could not have had a more caring group. Dawn, Stephanie, Stanley, Sunday & Whitney were not only a comfort to him but also his family & myself. If you find the need for this care I would recommend them 100%. Love & prayers to all of them.

Thank you for an awesome Golden Rule Hospice Team!! This team was prompt with meeting with the lovely Parrialeee Holmes she was very knowledgeable and compassionate. Ms. Vivian touch was so soft , patience, and our mother look forward to seeing her every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Nurse Shamilla was so understanding/patience with our multiple medical questions, she answered the phone after hours, emergency visits, and encourage at our lowest moments.

I’m giving 5 stars specifically because of Ms. Minnie! She goes above and beyond, helping any way she can. Our mom is not able to hold a phone so Ms. Minnie allows us to speak with our mom, which is priceless! Thank you so much 🙏💝

UPDATE:Golden Rule Hospice provided exceptional care for my father, during his time on hospice. Their team went above and beyond to ensure his comfort and dignity until his peaceful transition.I want to especially highlight Nurse Reggie and Ms. Vivian for their compassionate and professional care. Nurse Reggie was always attentive and thorough, offering guidance and support every step of the way. Ms. Vivian brought such warmth and kindness, making my family feel like we were never alone during such a difficult time.The ENTIRE staff (Ms. Elizabeth, Mr. David, Ms. Diana, Mr. Quay, Ms. Regina) showed such dedication and respect, and I’m forever grateful for the love and care they extended to my dad and our family. If you are considering hospice care for your loved one, I wholeheartedly recommend Golden Rule Hospice.If you're not looking for top-notch, compassionate service, then you might want to avoid Golden Rule Hospice, because Mr. Quay Bell is the definiton of excellence. As the intake coordinator, Quay went above and beyond when helping my family get our 92 year old dad signed up for home hospice. From his thorough explanations to his endless patience and genuine kindness, Quay made an emotionally difficult process so much easier to handle. He was always available to answer questions and made sure we felt supported every step of the way. So, if you don't want excellent customer service and true care for your loved ones, you'll be disappointed here. Quay and the team and Golden rule Hospice are the gold standard! 10/10 highly recommend.

Ronald S.

I really appreciated the care that Shamille Relf and Minnie Baker provided for my Uncle John. They were very kind and caring. They went above and beyond. All of the nurses were nice but they stood out from the rest.

Loring F.

I can’t express how wonderful the people are at Golden Rule. My husband’s final days and weeks were the worst time of my life. But because of the loving, Christian care he (and I) received, it was full of love and kindness and every kind of help imaginable. I felt completely surrounded with Christian love and support and I know my husband did too. If you find yourself struggling with a seriously ill loved one and do not want to consider a facility but rather, care for them at home, do not call anyone but Golden Rule. You won’t regret it. I’ll forever be grateful to them.

Joyce M.

I cannot thank God enough for leading us to Golden Rule Hospice for my mother. They are an outstanding group of dedicated, caring individuals who make an amazing team. Thank you, Harlee, Sunday, Mackenzie, Tina, Stanley and others. Your tender care with Mother and texts and phone calls to keep us informed helped so much in our journey. We are forever grateful. Joy McDonald

Frank J.

What a wonderful organization. The team took care of my father for many months in his last days and did a great job. His caregivers, Chris and Sunday, made it so easy for us and for the comfort of my Dad.Then, about 6 months later, they did the same thing for my mother, caring for her with compassion. The visits and calls and texts by the other team members we're very supportive.

Richard F.

The care and passion of the nurses and caregivers exceeded our expectations, we were so conformed by their care

Samantha S.

The team at Golden Rule were very caring and kind to my father. They were also extremely accommodating and listened with empathy to all of the requests we made. They communicated easily and readily with us and showed up over and beyond the required number of visits if additional help was needed. I would definitely refer others to Golden Rule and would use them again in future.Shamille, Liz, Minnie, Vivian, Barbara, Reggie, and the whole team did excellent work in a very difficult job.

Machlie B.

Honestly…. There aren’t enough words😭 My heart is so full! My mother in law had a very short battle with pancreatic cancer. She was diagnosed July 18th and passed September 7th! When i realized that treatment would’ve done more harm than good we decided that hospice care at home would be the best decision for her. Tim, Nicole, Shamika, Dionne, Trayonna, & Alexander there aren’t enough words for you guys!!!!!!!!! If i could give you the world I would because YOU guys deserve everything amazing God has reserved for you! We love you IMMENSELY!!!!!! God Bless you ALL always.!!!!

Natasha G.

Golden Rule was the right choice for my mother's home hospice care. From intake through to her passing, the team was very compassionate, knowledgeable, extremely patient, and understanding. Minnie, the nursing aide and Shamille, my mom's nurse, were exceptional and went above and beyond in caring for my mom. They ensured her comfort, cleanliness, peace, and dignity in her final days, and treated our family as an extension of their own. This was an extremely difficult time for me trying to balance being a daughter wanting to make the most of the final time spent with her mom, making the right choices to ensure great care, and handling everyday life responsibilities. Inasmuch as one can be prepared for the inevitable and handling death as a natural part of life, I felt that Golden Rule did their very best to try to support us and to ease the anguish, uncertainties, and ambivalence felt during such a challenging time. I would recommend Golden Rule to others who want home hospice care to feel personal and the humanity of their loved one to be recognized and valued.

JTuan S.

Amazing staff...my mother's (Linda Sloan) team was awesome.Staff members not on her team even pitched in.They will go the mile and beyond to ensure quality care and services. This is Not just a job for Golden Rule...they really become a part of the family.❤️❤️❤️

S “Ms. Make It Happen” M.

There are simply not enough words to express how wonderful Golden Rule Hospice was during my Mother’s illness. From the very start, when meeting our intake consultant, Keith Ashley, the compassion and warmth exuded was so timely and welcomed. At every stage of the experience there was courtesy, patience, thoughtfulness and proactivity. It made a very difficult life event so much more manageable having this remarkable team involve. THANK YOU KEITH, WHITNEY, MALLORY, EBONY, LISA GLYNN (incredible leadership), and the outstanding comfort care team. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Natalie J.

Wonderful hospice and palliative care! Such caring and compassionate individuals. Highly recommend! :)

Jane L.

Golden Rule Hospice went above and beyond taking care of my 93 year old aunt. From the very beginning when her nurse, Penny, walked into her room I knew I had selected the right hospice company for my aunt. Penny was so compassionate and caring when she came to check on my aunt several times a week. If anything came up, I could call and she would take care of it immediately. I know Penny was there for my aunt but she was also there for me. She would send me texts with encouraging words or scripture or just sometimes just to check on me.Another person that played a key roll in my aunts comfort was her CNA, Ebony. The first day I met her, I once again knew that I had chosen the right hospice company. She was so sweet and kind to my aunt and treated her with the upmost respect. She was a beautiful person inside and out. She came three times a week to help my aunt with her ADL's and my aunt always looked forward to her visits.I am so grateful for these two amazing women along with Stanley, her Chaplin. The entire team is wonderful and was a blessing to me with all of their support and guidance. I would highly recommend Golden Rule and feel so very fortunate that I found them.

The care Shamille and Ms. Minnie gave my mom was most amazing! The level of professionalism and concern was so comforting to our family. We were so relieved to know that this company provided such service that was above and beyond any expectations. Thank you Shamille and Ms. Minnie for walking us through this difficult time for our family. You made the experience easier to accept and became a part of our family. Anytime we needed meds, there was a question or concern, supplies, you were right there and didn’t hesitate to assist. Thank you Golden Rule for setting the bar so high and exceeding expectations! We are grateful to your entire team and their contributions to the care of our mom! God bless you all!

What an amazing experience with Golden Rule Hospice! From the very start, nothing but caring and knowledge people from the staff.

Vivian R. Is a treasure. The kindness and care she showed my mother, Ellie Pope, brought comfort to our entire family. She showered mom with beautiful jewelry and always ensured that Mom was well dressed and well accessorized! She was incredibly helpful and very specific about things I could do to help my mom. V Vivian worked so well with our other caregiver and we truly miss her. Unfortunately mom was dismissed from Golden Rule Hospice due to Medicare qualification issues. Thankfully, she still works here at Montclair and is able to visit with mom. As Mom said, I really like her.

Reggie communicated with us so honestly and compassionately! You are so lucky to have them! We appreciate all those at Golden Rule who assisted us until my dad’s passing. Thank you for such kindness.Terry Waterman

I will never have the words to properly express how amazing Golden Rule Hospice was taking care of my Dad. Chris and Andre, as well as the entire staff at Golden Rule were perfectly amazing. I had used 4 other agencies before I found Golden Rule. Wish I had found them FIRST.

Golden Rule Hospice is an amazing group of people. They cared, not only for my 95 year old Father, but our whole family. The entire team is wonderful and I cannot say enough good things about them but I need to give a special shout out to a few people. Ebony, who saw my Dad 3 days a week brought such joy, smiles, laughter and light during difficult days. We all looked forward to her visits and she shared her love with all of us. Harlee, his nurse, has such a kind and loving spirit. Her ability to effectively communicate and take the time to discuss options and the best path for Dad was a blessing. Stanley, the Chaplin who saw my Dad, made such a positive impact on our family, he officiated my Dad’s memorial service. They provided support, comfort, a shoulder to cry on and guidance as we navigated saying goodbye to the best man I have ever known. Their support did not end with my Dad’s passing. Weeks later they still call and text to check in to see how we are holding up. There are so many more people behind the scenes that we did not see regularly but whose support and guidance was invaluable. I have never encountered a business who employs such an extraordinary group of people. We were so very lucky to have found them.

Golden Rule is AMAZING! From the first phone call to Bobbi Love, we knew Golden Rule was the right choice for our Mama. Little did we know how awesome Penny Crews and her team would be. What a blessing! Penny became our family. She was so sweet to Mama and would sit and hold Mama’s hand and discuss anything Mama was feeling - from medicines to fears and everything in between. Charlotte was so precious giving Mama her bath and fixing her hair- Mamas favorite thing. Mama loved singing hymns with Regina. Sunday would be our nurse on the weekends and after hours- and what a treasure he was. Mama was in Penny’s (Golden Rule) care for about 6 months until she passed away. Penny came to her visitation. There are no words to describe how much Golden Rule, Penny Crews and her team meant (and still mean) to us and what a positive affect they had on the end of my Precious Mama’s life and on our family. Thank you SOOO MUCH!

Thank You! It's hard to put into words the care that Nurse Vivian R. and the members of the hospice team provide each and every day. The professional care, service and human side of Vivian's R. work was demonstrated on multiple levels. It is without a doubt that the latter months of care for JG was more than one could have expected. I am thankful for your work as well as the staff that provides care daily to their patients and the family members - Thank You.

Vivian Robinson has been assisting my uncle Rodger for a while now. I get updates after each visit. Everyone at Golden Rule Hospice has been very helpful, from getting started, to the regular ongoing care my uncle is receiving today. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

We used Golden Rule Hospice for over a year while my Mom met the eligibility requirements for hospice care…… i can truly say Golden Rule is a phenomenal organization with tremendous caregivers. The entire hospice team assigned to our Mom, in particular her primary care nurse, Penny, were extremely competent professionals and very compassionate in their approach to caring for her. Penny provided us with an update on Mom after every visit and she became like a family member to us. I highly recommend Golden Rule Hospice and have absolutely no reservations in doing so.

Vivian R, CNA, has been providing valuable care for my wife for over 6 months and is an great example of service and dedication to the patient. My wife is in the later stage of dementia and cannot communicate. Vivian works well with the independent caregivers to coordinate to provide a high level of care. She has a very pleasant personality and keeps me informed following each visit.Vivian and Chris the Golden Rule nurse work well as a team and exceed my expectations when i was deciding on a hospice company. Golden Rule is a great choice and everyone on their team has been exemplary.

Vivian R is my Dad's Hospice CNA, and has been taking care of my Dad for a month now. It (Vivian's help) has been wonderful for my Mom who is overwhelmed with all this. Vivian emits confidence and intelligence in her care of my father who is now bed bound and mostly sleeping. She collaborates with my Dad's private duty CNAs, and her knowledge and bedside manner rubs off on them. Golden Rule has been great, from the time Diana RN met with us and admitted Dad, to the consistency of care provided from his primary Hospice Nurse, Penny.

We've just started hospice Care for dad about 10 days ago. Don't know where to start so I'll start with Chris are Nurse. Outstanding communications never fails to respond to text or calls. Whether prescriptions or supplies he's on top of it. Kiera and Joe visited and I swear this happened. Joe asked dad what has kept him going for 89 years. Dad said family and watching nature out his back sliding glass door. Less than 2 minutes later a Doe and fawn walked by. Joe and Kiera couldn't believe it. Dad said "see what I mean". He has really improved with moms' constant care. 12 days ago in the hospital he was close to leaving us. I know this is a short time so far and who know how things will go but we are having more time with Pop than i ever thought we would Thank You Clay

Words can not express how grateful our family is for Golden Rule Hospice. From the first meeting with Dennis until the end of my mother's life, they were the most fantastic group of people!The care and love that our mother received during the last ten months of her life was exceptional.Penny, my mother's nurse, is one of the most amazing women I have ever known. She is a compassionate and caring nurse who loves her job and her patients. Penny was always there to answer any of our family's questions and quickly came up with solutions. She not only cared for my mother, but she listened to the life stories that my mom loved to share. She held my mom's hand and would give her a big ol' hug. She provided excellent care and respected my mom's wishes, even until the end. Penny is like a family member, and we all love her!Chaplain Joe was there to offer the spiritual support my mom and family needed, but he gave so much more of himself. Joe loves like Jesus. My mom loved sharing her faith with all that would listen, and Joe would undoubtedly listen. I can not imagine going through the experience of losing my mother without the support of Chaplain Joe. Our family will never forget the kindness Joe showed our mom and us!Every contact we had from Golden Rule Hospice was outstanding, but a few went above and beyond during this very emotional time of our lives. Thank you to Kiera for reaching out and ensuring our needs were met at all times. Thank you to Sunday for your gentleness with our mom during those last days. And last but certainly not least, thank you to Caroline for taking such loving care of mom and making sure her earthly body was at its best in those final days. Mama was always a classy lady, and you wanted to make sure that she lived up to that until the end.Everyone we dealt with at Golden Rule Hospice has earned a place in our hearts forever! Thank you for everything!

This company made the loss of our father a much less stressful situation than it could have been. They were incredibly compassionate and kind and RESPONSIVE.The nurses were kind and very helpful. We knew exactly what to look for throughout the process.And Chaplain Joe has become a family favorite and in fact, we have reached out to him as we mourn the loss of another family member.Do not hesitate to call this wonderful group of people if you’re experiencing a loss. Your loved one will appreciate the care they receive and you will not believe how light your burden can be made.

Such a great experience with Golden Rule Hospice! The whole staff is so helpful and wonderful about giving updates. Everyone who cared for my mother did their job professionally as well as being friendly and easy to talk to. So very thankful for all of the services including social worker, nurses, CNAs, pastors and office staff among others. It is comforting to know you have a team to help your loved one and their family. Our family cannot thank Golden Rule enough.

My experience with all of these lovely and caring people was beyond exceptional! Our nurse Penny, Minnie, Chaplain Joe, Kiera, and others showed so much compassion as my husband fought so hard from Cancer. I never had to worry about someone answering my calls in minutes to medicine getting delivered in record time. I will always have these people as friends and will always carry them in my heart. Excellent service with excellent compassion for their families!
