Hospice Care

Hospice care is not a place, but rather a philosophy to provide comfort care to patients including medical, emotional and spiritual care focused on quality of life. Hospice provides experienced, compassionate care to patients and their families when faced with a serious, life-limiting illness. Hospice is high-quality medical care given when the focus shifts from curing the illness to providing comfort or when patients choose to not seek aggressive medical care at end of life...

Palliative Care

Palliative care is specialized medical care that improves quality of life for patients with a chronic or advanced illness. Palliative medicine provides comfort and improves quality of life with a focus on relieving pain, suffering, stress and symptoms of living with a serious illness. Unlike hospice care, palliative therapy is not time-limited and does not require the patient to have a prognosis of six months or less to live.

You continue to honor those you cared for.

Thank you so much for the beautiful Memorial Service you hosted in memory of those lost these past months. It was a perfect way to reflect a bit and to see their caretakers. You continue to honor those you cared for and it warms our hearts. Thank you again for the care and comfort of our parents.

I was comforted that he had more sets of hands and eyes on him.

I attended the Memorial Service today in honor of my husband. It has been almost 7 months since I lost my husband, friend, and companion. I must admit I cried for about half of the service and I wasn’t ashamed. This is a whole new “life” I have to adjust to and there are days when I hate it. Everything about the service today was comforting and I was pleased that I came. I was comforted that he had more sets of hands and eyes on him. For all you did and continue to do... thank you!

We also had a wonderful experience.

I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to Angels Grace for the wonderful care you provided my father the last few weeks of his life. I would especially like to say thank you to the intake nurse, Scott, who was a tremendous support at just the right time in my dad's life. We also had a wonderful experience with Liz, Brandi and Monique, as they were so caring and truly angels for my dad, as well as my mom and me. I will forever be grateful to the team at Angels Grace for making the most difficult experience of my life bearable and most importantly, peaceful for my dad.
