Compassion, Peace and Dignity
This sensitive time can be difficult for both patients and family members. We offer our complete support and trust, providing unparalleled care for our Easton patients. We seek to minimize pain, provide symptom relief, all with respect to the wishes and goals of our patients.


Comfort Versus Curative
Deciding when to consider hospice care is not always an easy process, with varying factors in each situation. Typically, a 6 month terminal prognosis is an adequate and proper time for hospice. We also suggest hospice for children with life-limiting conditions and illnesses.

A Doctor’s Referral is Not Necessary
Our hospice care is available upon request from anybody. It does not have to always be through a doctor. Patient references can come from family members, friends, clergy, and others. To make the referral process more convenient, we offer online hospice referral through our website.
