Mission Statement
We, Holy Cross Home Care and Hospice, serve together in the spirit of the Gospel as a compassionate and transforming healing presence within our communities. Holy Cross Home Care and Hospice treats each person we serve with love, respect and kindness. We are committed to safe, high-quality care for all.
Description
Founded in 1967, Holy Cross Home Care and Hospice began as a home-based care agency out of the Holy Cross Health system in Silver Spring, Maryland. Our founders saw a need for home-based care within the Silver Spring community and believed our organization could play a significant role in the lives of those who needed our health care services. As one of the early adopters of hospice care in the region, the agency has been at the forefront of home-based services for decades; integrating advanced technology and partnering with colleagues at Holy Cross Health to develop specialized programs.
More recently, in 2024, we expanded our services to include palliative care to help individuals with serious illnesses manage pain and symptoms and improve overall quality of life. As the first Trinity Health at Home agency to move to the Epic electronic health record, Holy Cross Home Care and Hospice empowers patients with efficient access to their health information and other features.
In 2024, we also relaunched Beyond Balance, a fall prevention program for seniors. This comprehensive program includes tailored care plans and patient education, which empowers seniors to thrive at home.
As we move forward, our focus remains to bring compassionate, high-quality care to patients in the comfort of home. In the coming years, we are planning to expand our services and serve more families who need us. Our goal remains the same: to be your trusted home health care provider.CAUSE AREAS
