Overall Review of Gentiva Health Svc

common 31 reviews mention this

Staff compassion stands out

Residents and families frequently describe care that feels compassionate, respectful, and dignified.

Across many reviews, families highlight nurses and other caregivers treating loved ones with dignity, kindness, and respect. Several reviewers single out specific staff members as steady, professional, and emotionally supportive during hospice or end-of-life care. Even in critical reviews, at least some individual caregivers (like a CNA or chaplain) are described positively, while the overall experience is still judged as insufficient.

common 11 reviews mention this

Communication and guidance vary

Reviews describe both helpful, responsive communication and, in some cases, slow or limited follow-through.

Many families say the team answered questions, explained what to expect, and helped them prepare for symptoms and transitions. Several also mention being reliable when supplies or medical needs came up. Other reviewers report slow responses, limited engagement during nurse visits, or lack of follow-up when messages were sent, which left them feeling that medical care was not provided in a timely way.

common 3 reviews mention this

On-call support at night

Some families describe on-call help and after-hours access when urgent needs come up.

A number of reviews mention support outside a standard schedule, including an after-hours hotline and nurses dispatched when something changes. Families describe feeling more at ease because help was available when medication or urgent care was needed. One review also emphasizes on-call nursing presence during overnight moments, reinforcing the importance residents and families place on timely coverage.
