When you are seriously ill, it's important to be in a place where you feel secure, comforted and cared for-relieved of pain and distress. You want to be surrounded by dedicated, capable, compassionate professionals.

✔️ Fact: Hospice services are available to individuals of any age with a life-limiting illness.

❌ Myth: Hospice can only help when family members are available to provide care.
✔️ Fact: Hospice helps coordinate community resources and professional support to make care at home possible for many patients.

Learning the facts can help you make informed, compassionate choices. If you or someone you love has questions about hospice, we are here to help.

Caregivers are the steady presence behind every moment of care.

They are spouses, children, friends, and loved ones who show up each day with patience, strength, and compassion. While their work often happens quietly, the impact is profound.

One family shared this reflection of gratitude:
“Sometimes in life, there are no words that can convey deep feelings. Thank you to all who participated in providing care. Loving thanks!”

Hospice care is appropriate when curative treatments are no longer effective, and the burden of the disease or condition becomes too much to bear for the patient and family. By providing relief from physical and emotional pain, patients and their loved ones can make the most of their remaining time.

Two of the most prevalent indicators that signal it’s time to contact Arbor Hospice are:

🌿 When the focus of treatment changes from curing the illness to maximizing quality of life.

🌿 When pain is not well-controlled or easily managed, and routine activities, such as walking, eating, bathing, and dressing, have become difficult.
