What is a Hospice?

Hospice provides compassionate support to manage pain, ease symptoms, and offer emotional and spiritual care to both the patient and their loved ones. Hospice care can be delivered at home, in hospitals, or in dedicated hospice facilities, with the goal of helping people live their remaining time with dignity, peace, and the highest possible quality of life.
