“My family has been blessed to have multiple family members in Sangre's care over the years and we recently experienced their care in the hospice house this past couple of days. Our family cannot thank the team (Katrina, Gen, Brianna, Gwen, Jane, Sandra) enough for the incredible care they provided to our loved one at the hospice house. From the moment we arrived, they showed genuine compassion, empathy, and professionalism. They made sure our family member was comfortable and treated with dignity, while also supporting us through such a difficult time. Every nurse, aide, and staff member went above and beyond to ensure we felt cared for as well. Their kindness and dedication made all the difference. Thank you for everything you do.”

“The Nurses of Sangre de Cristo Community Care have been wonderful! Nurse Hannah and Becky have helped me as I recover from UC. They could not be more professional and more helpful. We are lucky they work in our area. Thank You Nurses!”
“My family couldn’t have given my grandmother the care she deserved if it wasn’t for the incredible staff with Sangre De Cristo. They helped us understand the process of death in a compassionate way and taught us how to be better supporters of our grandmother in her death. I didn’t know service like this existed and I feel so much better knowing they helped my grandma and that this exists for the day death comes for me and my other loved ones. I’m eternally grateful for the nurses and CNAs that helped us around the clock. Thank you!”
“I have been a caregiver for the same client for over 5 years. Sangre de Cristo has been her visiting nurse care since before I started taking care of her. Our current visiting nurse, Kayla Wheeler, is by far our favorite nurse. We prefer to only have her to take care of whatever is needed. Kayla is professional always. She shows genuine concern whenever there is an issue or problem. She is friendly, attentive, and kind. When we have questions, she does her best to answer. And if she doesn't know the answer, then she finds someone who does. She makes sure to inform us of when our next visit is going to be, and if we have conflicting schedules she makes sure to work out something to be sure that nothing falls through the cracks. I cannot say enough how impressed we have always been with Kayla, I really hope that she continues to care for my client for as long as she needs her ❤️”
“Hannah is a great asset to your company. Knowledgeable without being a know-it-all. Very pleasant to work with. I want her as my nurse for the duration of my time with Sangre de Christo home health. Thank you Claudia Schrautl”

“Wonderful organization, Sangre De Cristo took care of my Nana before her passing. Her clinical team treated her with the upmost respect and dignity. Her nurse was amazing and took the time to ensure her great granddaughter (my daughter) was comfortable around the changing environment explaining things and even answering her questions. You will not receive this level of care anywhere else. Very thankful for Sangre”
