PP here. No shows. Changed nurses multiple times. No response to calls or emails. Social worker is a waste of space. I can't say enough about how horrible. Worthless and at a time when we are really needing support. None there. Stay far away.

Stay far far far away from Capital Caring. I heard this many times and didn't listen. Horrible.

Reviving this as we are currently deciding between VITAS and Capital Caring. If you had a good or bad experience with either, could you elaborate? My mom had been leaning toward Capital Caring, so the negative reviews above are of interest to me.

Montgomery Hospice

Also did not like Capital Caring. But once with them, it was hard to switch. I’m sorry OP.

I'm looking for communication. There is very little and even then initiated by me. I'm not looking for a 24/7 thing. But just basic communication.

I have dealt with hospice in the past. Capital Caring is horrible.

I do not recommend Capital Caring.

What are you looking for? In general, if hospice is in the home, it is extremely skeletal. They will get you equipment and supplies but not a lot of care. Once a week nurse visit, every other week social worker visit, once a month doctor visit, 2-3x a week 30 minute bath visit. It is not a 24/7 thing.
