Abigail Hospice
Abigail Hospice is a Medicare-certified hospice provider serving Howell, Michigan 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.

Thank you Abigail Hospice, I'm leaving this review to let others know what a great experience it was to have such caring individuals taking care of my father. Having that peace of mind knowing that the team was just a phone call away was such a stress relief. Everyone on the team was so good at their specialty and always happy to be there (so rare these days). They took their time on each visit to make sure David was as comfortable and happy as he could be. Hospice is not just one person and didn't realize how many people the team consisted of. From the head Dr, all the nursing staff, spiritual counselor, massage therapy, and aids that were so nice, Thank you! The whole Richard family appreciates everything Abigail Hospice have done for us.
We highly recommend Abigal Hospice. Their team provided exceptional care and support during the final weeks of of our Mother's life. A special thank you to Beth, Gabby, Hayleigh, Linda, Veronica, and DJ for their outstanding compassion and dedication, they truly went above and beyond. Thank you, The Barron Family
Abigail Hospice played a crucial role as we navigated my father-in-law's end of life journey. They spent the time to continually evaluate him and provide the comfort care that he needed, and worked seamlessly with the care staff at his assisted living community. More importantly, they were there to inform and support our family during this fragile, fleeting, and precious time. From the nursing staff, care aids, and pastoral care from DJ, their chaplain, the team did an amazing job and were caring and compassionate. I highly endorse and recommend them.
My wife had Primary Progressive Aphasia. The Abigail team was terrific for my wife’s care. I felt they went out of their way to make sure my wife was taken care of. They also helped me explain her care to her kids. Let me say, my wife’s nurse Veronica was the best we could ever asked for. From day one Veronica hit it off with my wife and made her smile and feel good about herself . She took her for walks, made sure she was eating, and communicating with caretakers at group home. Veronica also communicated to me any changes to my wife’s care . And answered any questions or concerns I had, very promptly. My wife passed away, but Veronica continues to ask how I am 5 months later. Hailey was also great support for my wife. She gave her showers, helped her with her makeup, etc. Another very important thing, Abilgal Hospice put my mind at ease also. You won’t be disappointed with them .
Everyone was so caring and helpful. They treated my mom like family. Can't thank Tiffany and Hailey enough. The whole Abigail crew was amazing. From 3am calls to weekends visits. They were there. Thanks again Tiffany Hailey Beth Shannon Lynn
