Mission Statement

Hospice isn’t a place. It’s a philosophy of care. Heartland Hospice is dedicated to providing patients with care wherever they consider home. Whether in a private home, a skilled nursing center or an assisted living facility, we tailor our caregiving to fit the patient’s and family’s unique needs. Our caregivers help manage pain and symptoms, enabling patients to live life as fully and comfortably as possible. Social workers and spiritual counselors create a comforting environment in which patients and families are able to share their thoughts, hopes and concerns. Bereavement programs provide emotional support to patients and families who need help coping with loss. Heartland Hospice is dedicated to uphold each patient’s and family’s wishes, goals and values. At Heartland we help preserve our patients’ dignity, show them the respect that they richly deserve, and provide compassionate care.
