We want to thank you all for the great care you gave Mike. As he always told us, "everyone is so nice," the food is very good" and they take good care of me." It always made us feel he was in good hands. Thanks for all you do!

I would like to thank each and everyone of you for the excellent care your provided for my wife. She was treated with care, respect and love. You all wer true professionals and she loved living at your facility. She told me often how kind everyone was to her. Too often when someone has a chronic illness, their dignity disappears bit by bit. That did not happen for my beautiful wife, because you all cared so much for her and the other residents. I can never thank you enough for all you did for her and for us.

You all made it possible through your teamwork to make (the Christmas party) such a special day. 

Well run. Kind, friendly staff. Good food. My father had been in excellent hands

Thank you all so much for the care you gave our mother and our family. You made our situation more comforting and you really have a great staff. 

Thank you to every person who made Joseph Z. feel like family. All of your care goes above and beyond what anyone could hope for. Bless all of you.

Thank you for the memorial plant we received. Your thoughtfulness is much appreciated. Thank you also for your excellent care that she received while there. 

We would like to thank your staff for the compassionate care you all gave Marie during her final months. Not only did you help her, but also us. Being available if there were any concerns, giving comfort to our hearts knowing that she was being well taken care of, helping us spiritually and making the transition much easier for all of us. 

Thank you for all the assistance you gave me during my stay. I felt respected and listened to. God's blessings on your work here. 

We want to thank each and every one of you for the love and care you had given to our mom. She always looked forward to your visits and made her feel better after you left. You also gave us the comfort to make us feel better and what to expect. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you! (Sioux City)

Care Initiatives Hospice and their staff were incredibly comforting to our family, and took remarkable care of my mother during the final months of her battle with ALS. We are so thankful for their support and advocacy for her comfort. They took the time to help her with quality of life projects that were important to her, and an incredible surprise and treasure for her family. They went above and beyond to ensure that we created lasting memories that we would all cherish. It takes special people to be able to interact with families anticipating the loss of a loved one, all while focusing on the transition of the loved one to their new home. I recently recommended them to my mother-in-law for a family member. They also had an incredible experience.

I was visiting my brother at your facility...I was very impressed. The staff, nurses, volunteer are supportive caring and dedicated. ....this is a shining example of how this type of facility needs to be run ...It is done is such a way that you show respect and a caring attitude about each member of the community. I want to extend my appreciation and thanks for a job well done. You are God's special blessing to lots of people.

Thank you all so very much for everything, you all were so amazing with my mother and truly helped my family in our time of need.

We can not thank you enough for all you did for XXXXX and our family. You are amazing, caring and thoughtful in all you do.
