Our Focus

Our staff of highly qualified physicians, nurses, certified home health aides, social workers, chaplains, and volunteers work in partnership with the patient, family, and their personal physician to make the final period of life comfortable and peaceful.

Mission

To provide compassionate, holistic end-of-life care, centered on a personal approach, connectedness, dignity, and clinical excellence. 

Our Vision

We believe that everyone’s journey deserves utmost respect, empathy, and support. Our personal approach lies at the heart of everything we do. We strive to build strong, trusting relationships with our patients and their families; whomever they deem is their “family”; acknowledging their unique needs, wishes and values.

By truly understanding their stories, hopes and fears, we aim to create an environment that promotes comfort, peace, and emotional well-being.

 

We believe Connectedness is a cornerstone of our mission. We foster a sense of belonging and community, ensuring that patients and their loved ones feel supported throughout this challenging time. We actively engage with families, offering guidance, resources, and a compassionate presence to help them navigate the complexities of end-of-life care. By fostering open communication and creating a supportive network, we aim to alleviate feelings of isolation and promote an atmosphere of shared understanding and solace. 

Grief Support

Grief support is a vital element of Hospice care for families. Before, during, and after the loved one’s death, hospice grief services can be an important support to assist patients, families, and all the survivors of an individual patient.

Our Team

Hospice care is patient centered and patient directed. It is one of the best examples in health care of collaboration by an interdisciplinary team dedicated to meeting the needs of the patient and family.
