Our Patients’ Stories

Our Mission

Compassion, Peace and Dignity

We support you and your loved ones during this difficult time by working with symptom and pain management that allows end-of-life patients to achieve new goals and improve the quality of life. We treat them with the compassion, peace and dignity they deserve.

Comfort Versus Curative

If a child is suffering from life-limiting illness or if someone has a terminal prognosis 6 months or less to live, consider getting hospice care to give the highest quality of life to your loved one in the final stages of their lives.

A Doctor’s Referral is Not Necessary

Anyone can request hospice care, and the patient will be admitted under a physician’s direction. An online hospice referral can be conveniently completed through our site. The referred patient may be sent by a hospital, clergy, family, friend or other home care agency.

Hospice is Affordable

Medicare, Medicaid and most private health insurances cover hospice care, allowing you to care for your loved one and provide them with high-quality care.
