Comfort at every step

Care & Services

Personalized care that puts your comfort, your wishes, and your family first.

Hospice care, centered on you

Our hospice care focuses on comfort and support for patients with a terminal illness and their families. When a physician certifies a life expectancy of six months or less if the illness runs its normal course, hospice may be an appropriate option.

Your care team brings together physicians, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and trained volunteers. Together, they support physical comfort, emotional well-being, spiritual needs, and caregiver concerns.

Hospice & palliative care

Palliative care is specialized care for the symptoms, pain, and stress of serious illness. It can be appropriate at any stage of illness, even while receiving treatment aimed at cure. Call our team to discuss palliative care resources and availability.

Inpatient care & caregiver respite

When complex symptoms require more support, general inpatient care provides short-term care in an appropriate setting. Inpatient respite care gives family caregivers a needed break. Our team can explain how these options are arranged for your situation.

Care that respects your whole story

Veterans & spiritual support

We respect each patient’s background, experiences, faith, and spiritual wishes. Talk with our team about veteran-specific needs and how your beliefs can be honored in your care plan.
