Description
At Affinis Hospice, comfort, care and support of terminally ill patients and their families is the foundation of our personalized approach to health care. Individualized care provided by a collaborative team of medical personnel, members of the clergy, and local volunteers, is designed to meet the varied needs of both the patient and their family members.
Affinis Hospice provides prompt, courteous service, including same day referrals and admissions. We welcome any patient with a qualifying hospice diagnosis. Hospice care is a covered benefit under Medicare, Medicaid and many private health insurance plans. As a non-profit organization, Affinis accepts any patient regardless of their ability to pay.
