A sampling of the praise we've received for "A Different Season: The Hospice Journey," a booklet used by over 300 hospices and over 40,000 hospice families as a helpful guide to family caregivers:

"We find that families really respond to it. They won't give them back!" —A Social Worker at an Arkansas Hospice

"My hospice uses other materials, but I buy my own copies of "A Different Season" for patients because it's so much better." —A Social Worker at an Oklahoma hospice.

“We love it! It answers the questions every hospice family has.” —A Texas Hospice

“Our recent Joint Commission Survey RN was very impressed with your booklet!” –A North Carolina Hospice

“You covered what the families need to know in 32 pages. You nailed it.” –A Mississippi Hospice Director

“I carry a stack in my car. It’s the best.” –A North Carolina Hospice MD

“Clearly and gently written by an experienced hospice nurse, this booklet explains hospice services, helps family caregivers understand comfort care, instructs and reassures caregivers, prepares families for the changes to come, and describes the end-of-life process. We highly recommend this booklet as an invaluable resource for caregivers and family members as well as for community outreach, volunteer training, support groups, physicians’ offices, and nursing home education. It has received tremendous praise as a helpful handout for hospice families.” --Review by Compassion Books (www.compassionbooks.com)

“The section on food and the explanation of comfort care is worth the price of the whole booklet.” —A North Carolina Hospice

'A nurse and I chip in out of our own pockets to buy these booklets for the families in our very, very small hospice. That's how good they are for families.' —A Social Worker at an Alabama Hospice

“We started using them in caregiver folders, but they are GREAT for community education. Please double our order.” —A Michigan Hospice

“We love them!” —A New Mexico Hospice

“Covers the topics in the two booklets we used before, so it’s more economical for us.” —An Illinois Hospice

“If I’d had this booklet back when my Father was ill, it would have empowered our family to choose hospice instead of hopeless chemo.” —Arkansas reader

“So much easier to present to families than the booklet we used to have...even the title is less scary, so they read it. —An Arkansas Hospice

“Families like it better than the binder of handouts we’d been using. I love the quotes from other hospice families.” —A North Carolina Hospice

“We’ve really enjoyed using the booklet. It touches on things the others don’t: food, family dynamics, pain control...” —A Nebraska Hospice

“The booklet is lovely...helpful and thoughtful information -- especially on the food issues which are often traumatic for families.” --A Louisiana Hospice
