Hospice care is for people who are searching for a quality life when they are facing a life-limiting illness.

When the focus becomes palliative versus curative, this change does not mean giving up or giving in but rather choosing to have your symptoms controlled and living your life on your terms.

Our team are experts in pain and symptom management. We are there to focus on symptoms, so you and your loved ones can focus on life. We take a compassionate, patient-centered approach to providing holistic care – physical, emotional, and spiritual – for our patients and their families. 

Hospice is about living and spending time with what or who matters most to you.

Under Hope Hospice care you or your loved one are involved in the plan for your care. You have a team of professionals helping guide you through these decisions. This team includes a hospice physician, your primary physician, a team of registered nurses, a master’s level social worker, a spiritual care counselor, certified nurse’s aides, and volunteers.

Hope Hospice helps you cover the cost of the visits from your team, wherever you call home. Hospice covers all related medications, supplies, medical equipment, and appropriate treatments to maximize your comfort.
