CommonSpirit Health at Home is honored to offer Hospice Care services that provide compassionate care for patients and their families – no matter where they call home.
Hospice is a philosophy that focuses on providing expert care to people who are in the last stages of a life-limiting condition so patients and their families can focus on quality of life and what matters most. Our goal is to provide the best quality of life possible, through physical, spiritual, and emotional support that respects the patient’s wishes and ensures peace.
Our professional, dedicated staff is specially trained to work with hospice patients and family members to provide the critical, around the clock care they may need. We are also dedicated to each patient’s loved ones and family and strive to create a sense of community and comfort through compassionate care that extends to their spiritual needs, bereavement counseling, and ongoing grief support.
Our skilled team of hospice nurses care for patients as they transition through their life-limiting illness. Through coordinated care, our nursing team can help manage symptoms and pain to ensure the best quality of life possible.

Our Chaplains provide care to patients and families to support their spiritual and religious beliefs. The Chaplain serves as an integral part of the interdisciplinary hospice team providing opportunities for life review, reflection, resolution and connection with sources of meaning and hope. Our Chaplains also serve as a liaison with local clergy and assist patients and families in making sure their wishes are fulfilled through planning, preparation and facilitation.
Our hospice Social Workers support patients and family members by coordinating with physicians and caregivers to improve access to community resources that can enhance the social, emotional, functional, and physical health of our patients. In addition to the support services provided to our patients, our Social Workers also assist with end of life planning, life review, and grief support that meets the needs of the entire family system.
Our Home Health Aides provide assistance with personal care needs such as bathing, dressing, preparation of meals and feeding, as well as light housekeeping and socialization. The care they provide is under the direction of the Registered Nurse in coordination with the patient and their physician.
Volunteers are vital to the mission of Hospice and CommonSpirit Health at Home, reflecting the compassionate spirit of our ministry through office work, community support, visiting patients who are being served by our hospice team and supporting their families.
We offer many specialized services designed to improve the quality of life for our patients as well as ease the challenge of caring for loved ones wherever they call home. Our coordinated plan for care can help control pain through medication and non-drug treatments, manage symptoms, and ensure medications, medical supplies, and medical equipment related to the specific needs of each patient are available and seamlessly coordinated.
