Never more than just a step away. Always, kind, gentle, compassionate and tender in their manner. Respectful and sympathetic when communicating with us on things we needed to know.

  • I had not only one of my patient but friend in this facility. The facility itself is GORGEOUS and it feels like you’re at home. They made me feel absolutely welcome as a nurse and worked SO well with us to focus on not only the patient but family as well. I HIGHLY recommend this place for all hospice needs!

  • As an outside healthcare provider who visits frequently I’m proud to work closely with the compassionate staff at Lavigne! I’ve seen countless times the comfort and dignity that staff provides to their residents. We are lucky to have Lavigne has a resource to the community.

  • Lavigne Home was great with taking care of my mom the few days she was there. The workers were timely, kind, and also gave us space that we needed. The facility was extremely clean and compassion was shown during the intake process. I never felt like our feelings weren't acknowledged. Loved how they welcomed visitors and kids at that time too, as kids were so important to my mom through her life. Excellent care

  • My dad spent his final days surrounded by extraordinary compassion, kindness, dignity, and love. The care you provided went far beyond meeting his needs. You treated him as someone who was deeply loved, and you extended that same compassion and comfort to our family during one of the most difficult times of our lives. Thank you for giving my dad peace and dignity in his final days and for giving our family the comfort of knowing he was in such wonderful hands. What you do is so much more than a job. It is a gift to patients and families that will never be forgotten. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. You are truly angels among us.
