Nursing staff seem nice, but office management is a nightmare to work with. The nurses will offer something, then Morgan nursing manager in the office calls to inform us they no longer provide those options. This has happened several times while my sister and I are trying to care for our parents - support such as bathing care was promised, then denied by the office. The same thing happened with some medications and bandages; bandages were ordered, then the office manager nixed the order. NOT A GOOD SERVICE

If I could give this company no stars I would. They completely failed my grandmother in her final days, they did things without consent. Poor communication, and flat out didn’t help us at all. I’m so disappointed and heartbroken that we chose such a poor care team to provide end of life care for my grandma. Don’t let these people take care of your family. They don’t care.

I am a nurse case manager in Portland and I have worked with Housecall Providers Hospice quite a bit. They make the home hospice referral process easy and smooth, and they provide wonderful care to my patients and their families. They can often admit a patient to home hospice the same day I make a referral, which is essential when a patient is close to end of life. I trust them with my most medically-complex patients, as they are compassionate, caring, respectful, and incredibly knowledgeable.

Housecall Providers gave exceptional service to my mom, who was terminally ill, and to our family. They were always available, even late at night, when my mom was sick. They were very understanding, even when there was chaos in her home and when she was being stubborn. They also were amazing advocates for my aunt and me, since we were acting as her caregivers. I really have nothing but good things to say about them. I especially want to thank Matthew, Nancy, and Chris for being so kind. Nothing makes the passing of a loved one easy, but their kindness made it less painful.

Joanne Potts is as good as it gets! She is kind, compassionate, knowledgeable and proactive. She sees my 95 year old mother at an assisted living facility. X-rays, echocardiogram, blood draws have all been done at my mom's assisted living facility in a very timely manner. I can't say enough to tell everyone how wonderful she and HouseCall Providers are. I am able to communicate by phone and by a new online portal they offer. HouseCall Providers and especially Joanne Potts provide a wonderful service!

A copy of the letter I sent the office:
Honestly, how does one even thank you people enough? Who knew this journey would be so long? We went through chaplains and nurses like potato chips.
It was SO perfect that you offered home care AND hospice. That flexibility proved to be stupendously helpful, and the easy transition back and forth as necessary was invaluable.
But really, there are so many of you to thank and I'm going to forget names, forgive me. THANK YOU to Natalya, Lara and Nancy, Kelly, Sarah, Denise, Nancy, Joan and Nicole, Kirk then Steve, Ruth, Tenku, Jill, Dean and Scott

Three residents of my adult care home are patients of Housecall Providers. Over the last 2 years, we have had excellent response time to concerns both during and after office hours. Our provider, Alex, really listens to the resident and their family about their goals to create the treatment plan. The fact that residents with dementia or transportation challenges do not need to leave the home allows the provider to see them as they truly are in their environment. Communication is clear and concise and received in writing the same day.

Housecall Providers Hospice cared for our mother from June until her passing in October. Their good attention enhanced her quality of life, and gave us the support we needed to make it through. All the nurses, caregivers, and chaplains were excellent. We felt so supported. A hearty recommendation from my sisters and myself.

These people are amazing! I am so, so thankful for all they did for my mother, her caregivers, and me. They were always extremely considerate, respectful, and timely in the face of her care, which sometimes included extreme and ridiculous demands, and even a punch. Their willingness to sign a contract with a nursing home they hadn't worked with before to accommodate my mother's needs at the end is something I am unspeakably grateful for. Not only that, they volunteered to do it, without being asked. They are fantastic at doing an incredibly difficult job with exceptional grace.
