Mission Statement

Autumn Hospice’s mission is to provide compassionate, holistic end-of-life care, centered on a personal approach, connectedness, dignity, and clinical excellence. Focus of care is directed toward patient goals for the remainder of life and is adjusted and refocused as the condition of the patient changes. Autumn Hospice continuously strives to meet and exceed the unique and very individualized spiritual, emotional, and physical needs of the patient and family during the dying process, continuing through the bereavement period that follows the death of the patient. We believe that everyone’s journey deserves the utmost respect, empathy, and support. Our personal approach lies at the heart of everything we do.

Description

Volunteers are an integral part of the hospice team. Volunteers offer more than just their time-they provide emotional support, companionship, and a sense of dignity to patients and their families during one of life’s most challenging transitions. They spend time talking with patients, engaging in light activities like reading, playing music, or simply being present. These seemingly small acts have a profound impact on patients’ well-being. A volunteer’s presence can alleviate feelings of loneliness, reduce anxiety, and even improve the overall quality of life for patients during their final days.

Autumn Hospice provides orientation and training for our volunteers as well as continuing education and ongoing support. If you are interested in joining our wonderful team of volunteers, please contact us today!

Autumn Hospice serves patients and their families in the following communities: Auburn, Braintree, Brockton, Canton, Duxbury, East Bridgewater, Framingham, Hanover, Hingham, Marshfield, Norwell, Pembroke, Plymouth, Quincy, Rockland, Scituate, Shrewsbury, South Weymouth, Sterling, Stoughton, Sudbury, Wayland, Weymouth, and Worcester.
