Hospice offers specialized support to individuals who have a limited life expectancy resulting from an incurable disease. Dedicated to quality of life, hospice provides a support system of experienced professionals who assist both the patient and family in meeting their physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs.

The strength of our hospice program lies in its team approach to care of patient and family. This team includes the patient's primary physician, registered nurse, social worker, spiritual counselor, home health aides, trained hospice volunteers, and bereavement support to surviving loved ones for at least 13 months following the patient's death.

Our Medicare-certified hospice program provides medications, medical supplies, and equipment, as well as acute and respite care. Services are individualized based on the patient's and family's changing needs and preferences. Licensed registered nurses are available on a 24-hour basis. Ongoing bereavement support is available to friends and family.

Hospice services include pain management; symptom management; interdisciplinary teams; spiritual support; personal care; acute/respite care; medical equipment and supplies; specially trained volunteers; and home medical equipment.
