Avera home hospice in mitchell I can't even describe how excellent the service was. We had to make the tough move of putting dad on hospice and the entire hospice staff was out of this world. Very caring, helpful, knowledgeable, informative, just everything was perfect for our very difficult time. Thank you very much from our entire family. We can't begin to tell you how much we appreciate everything you have done

After being miss diagnosed by two Avera Dr's. One trip to the ER ( 02 levels in the low 80s) and waiting 5 weeks for a sleep study I may have to wait 1-2 weeks for a cpap machine? This kind of service is unacceptable. This has taken 90 days so far. Hurry up and wait is how Avera operates.
