At Jansen Hospice & Palliative Care, we strive to create moments of clarity and connection, offering personalized care that supports both patients and the loved ones by their side.
Hear Angela’s story in her own words here.
For Angela, a devoted daughter caring for her father in his final days, the journey was both emotionally overwhelming and filled with love. She shares how Jansen’s team helped lift the burden of caregiving, replacing uncertainty with reassurance, and fear with peace.
“I think when you’re a caregiver, you think you can do it all on your own. You don’t want to fail,” Angela reflects. “Once I heard that woman’s voice on the phone, I just felt such relief. I said, ‘They’re going to help me.’”
Angela found Jansen Hospice through an online search, but what she discovered was far more than medical support. It was compassionate guidance and unwavering presence. From the moment she made the call, she felt she had found the right partner for her father’s care.
Compassion That Begins with a Phone Call
Hospice care at home in Westchester should never feel isolating. At Jansen, we believe every caregiver deserves the comfort of knowing they are not alone. Angela’s experience shows how essential this support can be from the very beginning.
“They were at the house the next day. They had everything in order. They had everything set up—very comforting and very reassuring of all the choices that I was making, because I didn’t think I was making the right choices.”
Our team works quickly and compassionately to bring structure and clarity to a time that often feels chaotic. Whether it’s arranging medical equipment or simply sitting beside you with empathy and understanding, Jansen’s care goes beyond logistics, it’s about building trust and creating a sense of calm.
