Enriching the lives of those we serve with compassion, respect, excellence, and integrity.

Description

Every day of life should be on your terms.

It’s not the quantity of our days that makes life special. It’s the quality of those days. At Regional Hospice & Family Care, we provide patients with the physical, emotional and spiritual support they need to live life on their terms - fully - with the dignity and respect they deserve.

Regional Hospice & Family Care is tailored to meet the needs of those facing life-limiting illness with a multidisciplinary team dedicated to providing physical, emotional and even spiritual comfort to both patient and family.

  • Customized care plan

  • Nursing services
  • Personal care assistance
  • Financial/insurance advocacy
  • Spiritual comfort
  • Companionship (volunteers)
  • Bereavement support
