Hospice patients appreciate volunteers who talk, read and play games with them during visits. Many get very lonely, so the really enjoy visits. Patients in nursing homes or do not have families especially appreciate the visits. When patients do have family, the relatives are very thankful the great gift of your friendly presence, especially when it gives family members time to get other work done. Heartland serves patients throughout Washtenaw and Wayne Counties.

Mission Statement
Heartland Hospice provides quality care to patients with a limited life expectancy, as well as support to their families and caregivers. Formerly known as ProMedica Hospice, Heartland enhances the quality of life of those we serve through palliative and specialized supportive care designed to meet the physical, psychosocial, and spiritual needs of the patients and caregivers. Hospice care is provided by using an interdisciplinary approach in delivering care to patients--either in their own homes or extended care facilities--while working cooperatively with other health care providers and other community resources. Heartland Hospice strives to provide care to all who are eligible and need hospice care irrespective of ability to pay. Heartland is part of Gentiva Health Services.
