🌟 A Deep Well of Gratitude 🌟
At Hospice of Orleans, we are constantly moved by the incredible grace and strength we witness in the families we serve. Even in the deepest moments of grief, when their hearts are aching from the loss of a cherished loved one, they somehow find the time and energy to reach out and share their appreciation for the care we provided.

It is a profound honor to be trusted with the final chapter of a life, and these generous words fuel our commitment to providing the most compassionate, loving care possible, every single day.

To all the families who have taken the time to share their gratitude: Thank you. Your warmth gives us strength. It is truly the greatest compliment to know that, in a difficult time, we were able to offer comfort and peace.

Hospice of Orleans is here to support you and your family with compassionate, individualized care. If you have questions about hospice services, please don't hesitate to reach out (585) 589-0809

When we say "beyond the diagnosis", we celebrate
the people we care for, their WHOLE lives, stories, and the
moments that matter most. Hospice and palliative care
aren’t just about sickness; they’re about helping people
live well and with dignity.

If you have had experience with a loved one being cared for by Hospice of Orleans, we sure hope that it was evident that we were always attentive to all medical care, but also very committed to the care provided-beyond the diagnosis.

💌 Feeling the Love and Gratitude! ✨
Our hearts are completely full today! We just received another beautiful handwritten card from the family of a dear patient, and it truly made our week! 🥹

Knowing we made a difference during such a tender time is the greatest gift our team could ever receive. And the generosity doesn't stop there! They also let us know that they are making a contribution to our organization to help us continue our good works right here in the community! 🙌

This incredible gesture fuels our passion and commitment. Thank you, from the very bottom of our hearts, to this loving family. Your support and recognition mean the world and help ensure that compassionate, high-quality care is always available when our Orleans County community need it most.

We are so grateful! Let's keep making a difference, together! ❤️

🌟 It's Hospice & Palliative Care Month!🌟

November is here, and that means it's Hospice and Palliative Care Month! This year's theme is "We See The Whole You". This month we'll explore exactly what that means, so make sure to follow along!

We're kicking off the month with a huge shout-out to the incredible care that makes a difference every single day.

One of the biggest misconceptions we hear? That hospice is only for someone's last days. That couldn't be further from the truth!

It’s about living life to the fullest, with the best possible comfort and quality, right now. It’s comprehensive, compassionate care that supports not just the patient, but the whole family—emotionally, spiritually, and practically.

The truth is, people often benefit more when hospice services are started earlier. Why wait until the very end to receive the kind of support that can enhance well-being and provide peace of mind for months? Early access means:

More time for expert pain and symptom management.

More moments of quality time with loved ones.

More support and reduced stress for family caregivers.

Don't miss out on the benefits of this extraordinary care! Let's change the conversation around hospice this month.

Join us in celebrating the dedicated healthcare professionals who provide this vital service! Share this post and help spread the word that This Is Hospice, and it’s a powerful path to comfort and dignity, and not just at the end.
