Facing a life-threatening diagnosis can be an overwhelming experience for both patients and families.

Many patients are symptom-free until an illness or hospitalization reveals they have a life-limiting condition. Suddenly, everything changes.  

Hospice is the something more that can be done.

Hospice provides compassionate, quality end-of-life care through support, counseling and education for anyone facing serious illness, death and grief.

It is never too early to call hospice to inquire about the care and services available to you and your loved ones. Focused on comfort, hospice care involves managing pain and symptoms so patients can live their lives as fully as possible. Hospice is there to support quality of life when time is precious. Even if you do not feel hospice care is right for you or your loved one now, the best time to ask about hospice care is before you need it.

Call Hospice of Hilo at 969-1733 for more information.

It is our mission to be an integral part of the community, providing compassionate, quality end-of-life care through support, counseling and education.
