Been a year now since we lost my mother. Just now able to conjure up the strength and courage to come forward and say do not let your loved ones use this hospice service. They treated her like garbage the entire time she was under hospice care and would not treat her for any pain, would not even take vitals. Nurses would come out to do absolutely nothing. Dad called while I was at work one morning, mom was screaming in the background in pain. I don’t remember who was there at the time, but three representatives from Ar Hospice was there. None of them treating her pain. I told them to do their jobs but they “couldn’t do anything.” So I told dad to call an ambulance to get her to a hospital where her pain could be brought to manageable levels. That is when some woman who I will refrain from calling names, got an attitude and told me she’s under their care and I’m not allowed to call an ambulance but reiterated there was nothing they could do. I told them I was clocking out and coming home and to be out of my home before I got there, that they were fired. They refused to leave the home. Said they had to ensure she was going to the hospital. I of course warned them of the ramifications of messing with my dying mother, but I held back from what I would’ve liked to do. My mother spent her last days suffering at the hands of Arkansas Hospice and the companies they use for medical equipment (Riverside) but I will continue to tell my story to everyone so that maybe their mothers can get some peace in a way mine did not. They didn’t treat my mother with any type of respect, only humiliating her. Words cannot describe my utter hatred for this place and everyone who disgraces the healthcare field by working for this abomination of a company. If I knew and could afford a quality attorney that handles medical malpractice, this place would be public enemy #1.

My husband passed 12/20/2022. I cannot say enough about AH. They were the best. Always a call away. Prompt and our family could not have gone through this without them. My family wants to thank everyone in AH for all your caring and help. You were our Angels.

I was privileged to work for these people on the in house unit at the hospital in Hot Springs. You would be hard pressed to find a more dedicated and caring staff. They go above and beyond for their patients and the families.

The entire staff at AR Hospice were so kind & compassionate. Very professional, yet personal. It was so comforting knowing our loved one was kept comfortable & clean! TY to the entire staff!

After having my grandpa in this hospice, and then thankfully getting him into another, look elsewhere.

My Mom was recently admitted into the care of Arkansas Hospice at St Vincent's Hospital and our whole family is completely satisfied with all aspects of her care during her 6 day stay with them. They took care of every need with the utmost care and compassion which helped us be absolutely present with her during her last days. We treasure those moments we had to express our feelings and say goodbye to her with dignity. Thank you for everything!

I have had two excellent experiences with choosing to use Arkansas Hospice to assist in providing end of physical life home care for loved ones who were approaching their transitions to the universe. Every single Arkansas Hospice representative was patient, compassionate, empathetic, caring, and wonderful to work with during these very personal and profound events. They even provide follow-up bereavement counseling to make sure that the caregivers are themselves doing okay with processing their grief following the death of their loved one. I would not hesitate at all to recommend this provider for anyone who is considering hospice care for themselves or for a loved one. Thank you, to everyone who helped with my wife's end of life transition. I am most grateful for every one of you.
