I was fortunate to be able to work with the team from Hospice by the Bay in my mother's last weeks. The compassion and diligence shown to my mom was nothing short of outstanding. They were always a phone call away whether it was to give me advice when needed or just to listen to my anxiety ridden need for comforting words to help me navigate those times when I needed to hear them. It is with eternal gratitude that I thank those Angel's for their due diligence and soothing words to my Mom in her last days. The team are truly a remarkable group of people who I will never forget. Thank you ALL for your kindness and understanding in taking care of my Mom. She lived a long and interesting life before passing at the age of 98. ♥️🙏

We, at Sequoia Senior Solutions, have provided care to patients side by side with Hospice by the Bay for many years. More recently, we worked closely with Social Worker Kiara Lee. I was impressed by her compassionate attitude towards her patients and family members. Family members often need as much support as their loved one and, in more than one instance, Kiara was present, caring, non judgmental and resourceful. I could tell that she was very much appreciated by the patients' families.
