About the company
Suncrest Health Services runs hospice, palliative and home health care for seriously ill and recovering patients across the United States. Its nurses, aides, social workers, chaplains and volunteers visit patients where they live, including private homes, assisted living communities and nursing facilities, and staff answer calls around the clock. Hospice care focuses on comfort and symptom relief near the end of life, with bereavement support for families after a patient dies. Care is paid for mainly by Medicare, which covers hospice for terminally ill patients, along with Medicaid and private insurance. Suncrest was founded in 2011 and is headquartered in Sandy, Utah.
