Hospice of Warren County

About Us...

“We’ve come a long way,” is more than a cliché to Hospice of Warren County. Founded in 1979, we began our early years as most Hospices did at the time: making home visits with the help of a growing list of dedicated volunteers, educating and building relationships with the medical community and community at large, and seeking funds from donations and the United Fund.

In 1991, in order to provide more comprehensive Hospice care to our community, we expanded and enhanced our program in order to meet the qualifications for Medicare certification. This enabled people in our county to elect Hospice benefits and also provided us greater financial stability.

From the very beginning, our reputation for compassionate, personalized care defined our mission. We were then—and still are today—much more than a “place.” We provide a positive end-of-life philosophy of care, tending to the full spectrum of physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of our patients and their families ... promoting quality of life ... preserving dignity ... indeed celebrating life.

FOCUS ON THE ENTIRE FAMILY

Because Hospice of Warren County sees the family as the unit of care, we offer support and understanding to them as well as to the patient throughout the course of the illness. It follows that care does not end for the family when death does come to the patient. Rather, our extensive bereavement services are offered to the family as they make their way through their grief journey to healing.

QUALITY, COMPASSION, COMMITMENT

The common thread woven throughout our years of service is the quality, compassion, and commitment of our Hospice of Warren County team: a highly trained and caring staff, Medical Director, and devoted volunteers. All of these very special people come together as a focused team, providing quality care, comfort, and love to the patients for whom they care.
