We provide high-quality, compassionate care—in our house or yours.
Hospice care is a service to help terminally ill patients live more fully and comfortably during the last phase of life. Accepting hospice services does not mean that a person has given up or has quit trying. For many patients, care delivered by a trained hospice team may help their condition improve or stabilize. In most cases, hospice care enables patients and their families a more comfortable experience and improved quality of life. However, with so many options for hospice available, how do you choose the best one for yourself or a loved one? As a member of the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization, we encourage you to identify factors that are important to you and your family when selecting a hospice.

Pam Miller discusses end-of-life care.
For terminally ill patients who cannot receive the hospice care they need in their own home, Cottingham House provides a peaceful care alternative. We provide care, love and support for both the patient and their family.
The death of a loved one is difficult and personal. No one can prepare you for the feelings you will experience. Grief resulting from loss affects you physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually, socially and economically.
Even though physicians understand and believe in the benefits of hospice care, many hesitate to mention hospice care because they feel that the patient is not ready to discuss it. They’re often are relieved when patients initiate the discussion.
Because of the generosity of our community, we have built and maintained our Cottingham House inpatient hospice facility. Donations help enhance quality of life for patients through new technology, training, and much more.
