Texas Home Health Hospice-Austin LLC
Texas Home Health Hospice-Austin LLC is a Medicare-certified hospice provider serving Austin, Texas and surrounding areas. A Medicare-certified hospice provides comfort care and support services to patients with terminal illnesses and their families. Hospice care focuses on quality of life rather than curative treatment.
Hospice care is available to patients whose physician certifies they have a terminal illness with a life expectancy of six months or less if the illness runs its normal course. Patients may receive hospice care at home, in a hospice facility, nursing home, or hospital.
Medicare-certified hospices must provide all four levels of hospice care: routine home care, continuous home care for periods of crisis, general inpatient care for symptom management, and inpatient respite care to give caregivers a break. Care is provided by an interdisciplinary team including physicians, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and trained volunteers.
Medicare covers hospice services with no cost to patients for most services, including medications for symptom control, medical equipment, and 24-hour access to care. For more information about hospice benefits, visit Medicare.gov. Compare hospice providers at Medicare Care Compare.
Quality data and provider information are updated periodically by CMS. We recommend verifying current information at Medicare Care Compare.

I love the opportunity to review the Thank You cards received from families of patients we have the honor of serving. Some comments from cards received today…”I would like to express my thanks to the staff of accentCare Hospice for the care and concern they showed my husband and our family during this time. Again, Thank You!!”….”Thank you for your kind, compassionate care for ——- in his last stages of life.” So proud to work with such an amazing team that is committed to providing excellent end of life care!!
This is the WORST Hospice I’ve ever dealt with. If you’re looking for help for a loved one, RUN don’t walk, RUN. You will get no help from them. They told us to just sedate our loved one so we didn’t have to deal with them. Never showed up after hours when an emergency happened, again just give him morphine… Didn’t show up for regular visits, CNA would come to bathe and when they did, refused to do it unless someone was there to help them. When I say worst, I’m not exaggerating. If I could leave no stars, I would. Someone needs to shut them down.
We signed on to Accent Hospice care since they were affiliated with Texas Home Health, which we had exceptional care with. Starting care was smooth, as our first 2 nurses were exceptional and advocated for my father. Since then, we have received marginal care. They have treated my father as every other Hospice patient, not taking the time to address his individual needs and condition. After talking to the “team leader” today, I am convinced that there is just a routine plan of care that they follow and ignore what the specific patients needs are…unwilling and at times apathetic to my father’s individual needs. I would not recommend Accent Hospice to anyone, and wished in hindsight that I had gone researched the reviews and made a different choice.
My experience with accentcare has been for a better word traumatizing. They don't care about your loved ones , they have horrible communication and will do the absolute bare minimum to ease your concerns.
A poor excuse for hospice care. Do not waste your time subscribing to this service. They significantly overpromise and most assuredly underdeliver, starting with the leadership.
