Hospice Care

Hospice is a special type of care designed to provide compassion and support for individuals in the final phase of a terminal illness. 

Hospice care enables individuals to spend their last days with dignity in a comfortable and pain-free environment. 

Hospice care can be provided in the privacy of the individual’s home, in a hospice facility, or in a nursing home.
