Hospice Care
"Hospice is not about dying; hospice
is living every moment fully." (American
Hospice Foundation)
For terminally ill patients, hospice provides
quality health care and supportive services.
The goal of hospice is to care for the physical,
emotional and spiritual needs of patients and
their families. Whenever possible, hospice care
is offered at home.
Hospice care is provided
by a team of professionals that includes a doctor,
nurse, home health aid, bereavement counselor,
spiritual counselor and social worker.
For more information, please visit the Penn
Home Care & Hospice Services web site.
