What is Hospice?

Hospice is about living, about giving people access to what they need so they will have the best quality of life during a difficult time.  Patients who choose hospice have made the decision - along with their families and doctors - to change cure goals for comfort goals.  Hospice believes that through personalized services and a caring community, patients and their loved ones can obtain the necessary preparation for death so that it can be not merely a period of sorrow, but one which gives them a deeper understanding of life.
