Description
Organization Description
Heartland Hospice is a special kind of care designed to provide comfort care as well as spiritual and emotional support for individuals in the final phase of a terminal illness. Hospice focuses on enhancing the quality of life, rather than length of life. It neither hastens nor postpones death; it affirms life and regards dying as a normal process.
The hospice program stresses human values beyond the physical needs of the patient. Hospice ensures patients spend their final days in dignity and comfort. Heartland Hospice's program utilizes a team approach to meet the physical, social and spiritual needs of our patients and their families.
