What is Hospice?
In early Western
Civilization, the term "Hospice" described a place where sick or
weary travelers could find rest and comfort during a long journey.
Today, it refers to a very special type of treatment for the
terminally ill. It is no longer a place, but a philosophy and a
style of care. Grace Hospice brings this exceptional care home to
you and your family. |

HOW WE HELP
YOU We are a team of
highly-trained local professionals and volunteers who provide
a medically-directed program of care. Our program is carefully
designed to support and comfort patients with a life-limiting
illness and their loved ones. Every patient receives expert
pain and symptom management to ensure that they are as
comfortable as possible.
Together with the patient's physician, our
team designs a plan of care for our patients, caregivers, and
families. We partner with caregivers to regularly address the
needs of the patient by providing care in the home,
independent living center, assisted living, or long-term care
facility. Our services continue in the hospital during
authorized medical emergencies.
Our professional counselors offer
psychological, spiritual, and social services as required by
the patient, caregivers, family, and friends. Grace Hospice is
dedicated to building a support system that will help everyone
involved enjoy life to its fullest
potential. | |
