Five stars! From first call to the end of her life, my friend had excellent care at home from Tidewell Hospice, family and friends. Each person we had contact with was professional, courteous and informative. HELPFUL ! Each time I phoned, the person who answered the phone was able to completely answer my questions and guide me, no hold, no transfer to another person. The right answer right away. They brought what we needed when we needed it, they provided services we didn’t know we would need. God bless you, all of you, for allowing my friend to have her dignity and peace upon her passing.

The staff yelled at my mother the first night she was there with her dying mother because she was standing outside the room even though they were the ones who told her she has to wait outside while they transferred my grandma to the bed. Some of the staff here and there have been decent to my mom but for the most part have been rude and extremely mean. Worst place to put your loved one who is passing. So angry and upset!

I would recommend Tidewell hospice to anyone needing hospice care. My family and I were vacationing in Florida when my mother-in-law who was battling cancer for a long time took a turn for the worse. We decided to involve hospice for her care and called Tidewell. From the initial consultation to the day we left for home, we were in constant care. The nurse who assisted her made her feel comfortable while teaching us how to also feel at ease. The staff at Tidewell are true angels.

My husband was at Tidewell Hospice 22 hrs of beautiful, clean room. Nurses were wonderful and compationet, he was treated with dignity. I feel when he got to hospice he could feel the difference from the hospital and went to sleep peacefully. Thank you so much for making my husband last hours peaceful.

The staff at Tidewell is incredible, they are compassionate, caring and available whenever you need them. We were overwhelmed by their support, and very grateful for their knowledge and understanding in keeping the families informed. We have the utmost gratitude for nurses, and anyone in the field of caregiver. The staff at Tidewell goes above and beyond, and we are so grateful to them for helping our loved one make his transition. Thank you!! The Koellhoffer Family

Great people who make my father feel loved and care for him like he is their own family. This is dads second stay there in Bradenton Hospice House, plus they helped him at the hospital, nursing home and his home. I wouldnt want to deal with dads care without them! Super people to face a terminal illness with.

This place murders elderly via medically induced comas. They do not listen to the patients when they deny their death cocktail of morphine and ativan and instead shove it down their throats and brainwash them into thinking its a safe drug that will make them feel better. They also try to limit food intake to 0 and water intake as much as possible to speed up the death process.I highly recommend you stay away from this place unless its your desire to see an elderly loved one murdered through legal inhumane loopholes. My Uncle has maybe hours left to live as they used Family members that do not even care about the patient(In Hawaii and hasnt talked to his Dad in 15 years) to hold the power of attorney role so they can speed up the death and collect payment to then murder another elderly

Amazing facility! Couldn’t have hoped for anything better. To the folk who felt like H H hastened their loved ones death, I say only that hospitals attempt to extend life. That is not the goal of H H, it is only to allow your terminal loved ones to die without pain and with dignity. I am sorry that they weren’t clear on that. It was all we hoped and prayed for and more. Todd was an absolute angel. We are indebted. God bless.

Hospice came to evaluate my mother twice within a 2 week period and informed us that she did not meet their criteria. They said they would come back in 4 weeks and reevaluate. The nurse at her assisted living facility told them she would be gone by then, but they insisted she wouldn’t. The tidewell nurse was unprofessional when I talked with her. She informed me that the nurses at the assisted living did not know what they were doing. She died 3 days after their last visit. I was not at all impressed with their services and so sad that they didn’t make my mom’s last week of life bearable.

My mother just passed at Tidewell this past week... it wasnt easy but the staff was so understanding, caring, and explained the process to me more than once. I want to thank them all for their care and help, for all of us, as my mom passed.

My mother was there for almost 2 weeks before she died.On her 3rd day there, management met with my family and informed us they wanted my mother moved out to a nursing home because she wasnt dying fast enough nor did they think she had the end stage symptoms to qualify for Tidewell (even though they refused to feed her in any manner due to her extreme condition of late-stage Parkinsons and its consequent pneumonia).Her physician, of course, set them straight (not the first time he had to do that for a patient there). Tidewells doctor was an incompetent who couldnt find my mothers pulse, couldnt hear her heavy, labored breathing through a stethoscope, or make any diagnosis, yet claimed my mother was too healthy for Tidewell. The Manager was quite cold and formal in her dealing with us. She was informed that she was wrong by our physician, and a respiratory specialist from the local hospital.We believe they were convinced my mother wouldnt die fast enough, so they gave her morphine shots to speed her demise. One day she was talking and sitting up, the next she was incoherent and immobile.That, plus Tidewell billed Medicare for several services they did NOT perform, like at home visits (they never set foot in my parents home), $40,000 for a non-existent nurse, and for food, which they refused from the start to give my mother because her problem was a malfunctioning epiglottis due to the Parkinsons.A year later, I met a man who was caring for his dying wife at home. She had been thrown out of Tidewell for not dying fast enough. This was a severe hardship for a man in his mid-80s.
