- Hospice is a special healthcare option for patients and families
who are faced with a terminal illness.
- Hospice provides palliative (comfort) care when curative treatment
is no longer the patient's choice.
- Care is provided at home, the Hospice House, in a nursing home,
or in the hospital.
- Hospice provides services to patients of all ages.
- Hospice views the patient, family, and disease process from
a holistic perspective - addressing the physical, social, emotional,
and spiritual needs of each patient and family member.
- Our belief is that quality of life is as important as length
of life.
