Hospice & Palliative Care

Hospice offers compassionate care for the terminally ill, their families, and the caregivers. Anyone with a life expectancy of less than six months can benefit from Hospice services, whether at home or in a nursing facility.

The Hospice focus on quality of life embraces the whole person and family unit. Based on the family’s request, support may be provided through their process in many areas, including emotional, intellectual, spiritual, and physical. Hospice involves the patient and his/her family in all healthcare decisions to promote as much independence and personal control as possible.

Hospice care is based on an interdisciplinary approach to patient and caregiver support.

We are offering Grief Support Groups throughout May at MedWest-Haywood and MedWest-Harris. Visit the calendar for details.
