Serving patients wherever they call home
What is Hospice?
Hospice is About Living. It neither hastens nor postpones death, but affi rms life, emphasizing quality, not length. Hospice empowers patients to live with dignity, alert and pain-free, while involving families and loved ones in giving care. A major goal of hospice is to provide an environment where patients and families have ample mental and spiritual preparation for death.
