Hospice Care

Hospice is a special way of caring for someone with a limited life expectancy - when a prognosis is discussed in terms of months rather than years. Hospice affirms life and neither hastens nor prolongs the dying process.

St.Vincent Hospice services are focused on the entire family.  Our concern is not only for a family’s physical welfare, but also their emotional and spiritual well being.

The mission of St.Vincent Hospice is to provide compassionate and holistic care for the dying and those who care for them. We offer a wide range of services to meet the physical, spiritual, and emotional needs of the patient and his or her family. Our goal is to enhance the quality of life by keeping the patient comfortable and pain-free.Son of Hospice Patient Barney Wick's Video Testimonial
