Mission Statement

To provide exceptional care with empathy for our patients and their families so they may live with comfort, dignity, and respect.

Description

The hospice is driven by the philosophy of commitment to our patients, leadership and excellence as
defined below. We recognize the unique physical, emotional and spiritual needs of each person. We
strive to extend the highest level of courtesy and service to patients, families/caregivers, visitors and
each other.

We deliver state-of-the-art hospice services with identified centers of excellence. We engage in a wide
range of continuing education, clinical education, and other programs for professionals and the public.
We strive to create an environment of teamwork and participation, where, through continuous
performance improvement, people pursue excellence and take pride in their work, the hospice and
their personal development. We believe that the quality of our human resources- organization
personnel, physicians, and volunteers-is the key to our continued success. We provide physicians an
