What is Hospice Care?
Hospice care is truly an end-of-life care philosophy that gives primary focus to a patient’s quality of life when all other curative measures are no longer an option.*
The term hospice originates from the Latin word ‘hospis,’ or shelter. Our trusted clinic has come to be recognized as a preferred regional hospice resource in the New Milford area. Our team shelters both patients and their families through the necessary transition from one phase of life to another. We strive to make the transition easy, comforting, and seamless. Whether in the privacy of your own home, in a skilled nursing facility or an assisted living facility, our highly experienced team of hospice care specialists are on hand to provide all the hospice care services you need.
How Long is Hospice Care?
Once continuous curative measures have been exhausted, patients and their families must seek out hospice care. When you rely upon our team of compassionate specialists, you can be sure you are putting your loved one’s life into the hands of some of the best in the field. We stand ready to provide our top-rated hospice services to New Milford patients who have a life expectancy of 6 months.
