Hospice is an organization made up of people who help patients with a terminal illness live their days to the fullest. Hospice patients have a prognosis of six months or less and are interested in receiving palliative care. Hospice understands the multifaceted needs of the patient and family and offers genuine support with unlimited involvement in the families' and patient's day to day living.
Hospice care neither hastens death nor prolongs life.
However, we do provide comfort and support both physically and emotionally for the terminally ill patients and their families. Our goal is to enhance the quality of life for the terminally ill and assist their family in caring for them at home. Hospice care does not stop after death. We know that grieving the loss of a loved one is a natural part of healing. Its intensity and length vary from person to person.
