National Hospice Organization Founded in 1978, the National Hospice Organization is the only nonprofit public benefit organization devoted exclusively to hospice care. NHO is dedicated to promoting and maintaining quality care for terminally ill persons and their families, and to making hospice an integral part of the U.S. health care system. Some spiritual traditions place emphasis on the importance of conscious preparation for death as a way of showing respect for and acceptance of life's final adventure. Contact with death often gives us an opportunity to become more aware of Spiritual Realities . Death is not the opposite of life - it is the opposite of birth.
