Hospice is comfort care intended to give those with terminal diagnosis’ the best possible quality of life. The goal is to promote a life free of pain and discomfort for the patient, as well as support their loved ones.

 

By utilizing an integrated interdisciplinary team approach, hospice provides a whole team, for the whole person, for the whole family. Hospice care may be provided at patient’s home, a family member’s home, in a skilled facility, an assisted living, board and care, or the local hospital.
