Our Patients’ Stories

Our Mission

Compassion, Peace and Dignity
We build a strong patient-caregiver bond with each individual that comes to us for hospice care. We treat each patient with dignity, respect, and care, doing everything we can to reduce their pain and symptoms, with the ultimate goal of improving their daily life.


Comfort Versus Curative

Hospice care should be discussed when a terminal prognosis of 6 months or less is given, or if a child is diagnosed with an advanced illness. Our staff of dedicated workers are here to help you and your loved one through their end-of-life care.

A Doctor’s Referral is Not Necessary
Anyone can request our care, though many patients are referred to us by a hospital, family member, friend, or other agency. Our patients are then admitted to us under a doctor’s orders. We offer an online referral form for your convenience.
