What Is Hospice?
 Support
services for the terminally ill and their
families.
Hospice helps those individuals
with a life-limiting illness and their loved ones live
with dignity. In a place where the sounds and sights
of life surround them. A place like no other~Home.
Hospice treats
the person, not the disease. All care is centered
around comfort measures and quality of life.
Patients and their families
are included in the decision-making process concerning
the plan of care.
Bereavement counseling
is provided to the famliy before and after the dealth
of their loved one.
Hospice emphasized quality,
rather than length of life.
Hospice offers help and
support to the patient and family on a 24 hour a day,
seven days a week basis.
