What is "Hospice Care"?
Hospice enhances the quality of life and alleviates the burden of the terminally ill and their loved ones by giving them:

Control Patients are encouraged to articulate their desires and needs and to participate in
choices about their own care.

Comfort Emphasis is on pain management and symptom control.

Familiarity Care is given in the location where the patient feels most comfortable-usually in the home.

Dignity Our Hospice staff provides the support and expertise to allow a patient to live their lives to the
fullest until the very end.

Support Well trained professionals provide not only medical expertise, but along with our volunteers also provide spiritual, and compassionate support to patients and their loved ones.
