Betty
Seneca, SC

The Donald family is very pleased with the care our mother received. Jesse Slaton was her nurse. Jesse did an amazing job, going above and beyond to care for her. Our mother loved her and trusted her with her life. Mother also loved Tomika. Betty Sue’s best last days at home were when Jesse and Tomika would visit. The entire staff was wonderful and we would recommend their services to anyone needing end-of-life care and support.

David
Chappells, SC

The Agape Care Team was amazingly loving, caring and so very patient with us. Shasta and Jamie (our main nurses) were so amazing. They did all they could to make certain David was not suffering and also to make certain I was ok with what was happening. They held my hands along with David’s til the end. I’ve never felt more supported. They and the other team members walked the journey with us and I couldn’t be more amazed. Thank you for being there in our darkest time and bringing sunshine in.

Gertrud
Irmo, SC

Mom moved into the Lexington Hospice House a few days before her 93rd birthday. Although she had been there only a short while, each caregiver made an effort to stop by her room to wish her a happy birthday, even Sadie, the hospice care dog. On the day Mom passed away, Sadie walked her to the door. We will be forever grateful for the outpouring of love and care that was provided.  – The Hilley Family

Paul
Summerville, SC

Paul was a wonderful, loving husband and father to three boys, seven grandchildren, and 5 great-grandchildren who adored and loved him very much. May he rest in peace. He was only with Agape for a week but received wonderful care and for me, they provided support emotionally and physically. Thank you for outstanding care provided by your staff every day he was with you!

Mary
Moncks Corner, SC

After many failed placements for rehab my aunt arrived on a Friday at 12mn. I was kindly greeted by her nurse and told they had been awaiting her arrival. I was given a tour as my aunt was being settled in. Sadly she survived less than 48hrs but “My aunt was treated with the utmost respect and care as was the family.” She left this world on Palm Sunday peaceful and content. Thank you to all that participated in her care.

Dolores
Manning, SC

Agape was such a godsend to my mother-in-law, Dolores Cardenas Dykes, and our family. She was well cared for over the months leading up to and including her passing. It was a blessing to her to be able to remain in her own home until she needed respite care during her very last days.
