Hospice focuses on patients first
Our Community’s #1 Choice in Hospice Care
Hospice care is about life and living, maximizing the quality of time that someone has left. Hospice of Spokane has always focused on the patient first – what is best for the patient and the family and what they need to experience the best day possible. Hospice of Spokane’s patient-centered care is provided by interdisciplinary teams comprised of physicians, nurses, social workers, nurse aides, volunteers, chaplains, bereavement counselors and other professionals. Hospice of Spokane is our community’s oldest and only non-profit hospice. Founded in 1977 by a group of dedicated volunteers, Hospice of Spokane is focused on serving patients and families dealing with terminal illness wherever they call home including their private residence, senior living facility or at one of two Hospice Houses. They care for individuals of any age with any terminal diagnosis throughout Spokane, Stevens, Ferry and Pend Oreille counties. In addition to hospice services, Hospice of Spokane provides Spokane Palliative Care, supporting patients who may not be ready for hospice care but need additional support; northeast Washington’s only two in-patient Hospice Houses; an expansive bereavement support program including a no-cost grief camp for kids dealing with the death of someone they love; community grief support groups (for anyone in our community – not just those served by Hospice of Spokane) and more. For questions about hospice services or for more information, contact Hospice of Spokane at (509) 456-0438 or visit www.hospiceofspokane.org.
“Every single patient, we’re identifying what their needs are and how we’re going to meet those needs. We do that from the context of being the oldest, largest and only community nonprofit.” – Dr. Bob Bray, Hospice of Spokane Medical Director
