'They don't care.' | The closing of a Delaware County hospice unit is causing pain and confusion for families whose terminally ill loved ones now have to be moved.
Eighty-seven-year-old May Doherty was set to spend the remainder of her days in the hospice unit at Taylor Hospital. Her family says she doesn’t have long.The sharp-witted and fun mom, grandmother and great mother originally from South Philly and more recently Collingdale has been declining steadily for years due to her Alzheimer’s.“Why do you work all these years to save and have something for when you are in this stage of life and then it doesn’t matter. It just doesn’t matter.
“We’re all like very upset. Even the workers are like, ‘I can’t believe this is happening. This just doesn’t seem right.’ And the fact that my mom has only been there for two weeks, I’m sure this plan was in place before that so why didn’t they stop people coming in?” Tribuiani said. “This is the end. It shouldn’t be this. It should be comfortable and it should be for her, not for these big conglomerate corporations that just care about money,” Tribuiani said.Crozer Health addressed the closure in a statement to CBS3.
