Our family will always be grateful to RVNA Hospice for the exceptional care, compassion, and support they provided during my mother’s final days. From the moment hospice services began, the entire team treated my mother with dignity, kindness, and respect. They not only cared for her physical needs but also provided comfort and guidance to our family during one of the most difficult times of our lives. A special thank you to Gena, who was absolutely wonderful. Her professionalism, warmth, and genuine concern for my mother’s comfort brought us tremendous peace of mind. I would also like to recognize Garrit, who was hands down one of the most compassionate people we have ever met. His kindness, patience, and ability to make both my mother and our family feel cared for and supported will never be forgotten. He has a true gift for hospice care and made an incredibly difficult journey a little easier to bear. Because of RVNA Hospice, my mother was able to spend her final days surrounded by comfort, dignity, and love. I wholeheartedly recommend RVNA Hospice to any family facing end-of-life care for a loved one. They made a lasting difference in our lives, and we will always be thankful.

RVNA are literally angels on earth! My father in law lived with us and had home hospice as he fought pancreatic cancer. The care that RVNA provided for him was amazing and the nurses and shower aides who came to our home, cared for him in such a way that he felt like he was being visited by friends - he loved each and every one of them! And the care was not just for him - the social worker and the pastor would check in on our entire family as well to see how we were doing. Whenever we had a question or a problem, RVNA was just a phone call away with advice or just some much needed reassurance. They were the definition of kindness. We could not be more grateful for everything they did to make the remaining months we have with our "Pop" as comfortable as they did. They are truly special people.

The nurses and staff from RVNA that we had post open heart surgery for antibiotic iv's and monitoring were amazing. They were nice, caring, available when needed and answered all of our questions. They made us feel at ease with all of our new at-home procedures. They were available to be contacted anytime and would make a visit to our house anytime we had any concerns or issues. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

I had hip replacement surgery three weeks ago. I came home the night of surgery and the next day a gal from RVNA arrived to do some physical therapy and get me moving. It was around my second visit that I had a bad day after making great progress before that time. Kelly was so understanding and professional that I made it through that next time with a much better attitude and outlook. Her patience and understanding was just what I needed.

We have used RVNA numerous times for my mom and have been extremely happy each time. We have found them to be professional, helpful, patient and compassionate. RVNA communicates with the family, answers any questions and is there for the family as well as the patient. I have called their nurses and therapists with questions and they are beyond helpful in working with my mom and recommending products to help her. We will not use any other service.
