Overview

Good Shepherd Hospice provides end-of-life care and support for patients and families facing serious illness. Nurses, physicians, aides, social workers, chaplains and volunteers coordinate comfort-focused services in homes, care facilities and other settings. The organization addresses symptoms as well as emotional, practical and spiritual needs throughout the hospice experience. Its work is specialized healthcare centered on quality of life, not general home care or curative hospital treatment. Service delivery depends on clinical, operational and administrative teams working across its care settings.
