Transitions LifeCare - NC

Transitions LifeCare - NC Founded as Hospice of Wake County in 1979. Serves 8 counties including Wake. Oldest, largest and most experienced end-of-life organization in the area. Why?

"Hospice of Wake County, Inc. Becomes Transitions LifeCare April 30, 2014"

For several years Hospice of Wake County has offered more than “hospice” care and has served patients well beyond “Wake County.” Though we changed our name to Transitions LifeCare, our mission and vision are unchanged and we remain a local, non-profit serving patients regardless of their ability to pay. The core brand name “Hospice of Wake County” no longer accurately reflected all we do. We’re not just hospice. And we serve more than Wake County. Our service territory extends well beyond Wake County so we help more patients and families in Durham, Johnston, Franklin, Harnett, Wilson, and Nash counties, eastern Chatham County and in the communities of Chapel Hill and Carrboro in Orange County. Rest assured our expertise, compassion and commitment to helping families facing a serious or terminal illness remain the same. We are still a non-profit organization with a local board of directors. We have not been bought by a large, for-profit corporation. Going forward, Transitions LifeCare is our single brand name and our service lines have corresponding names: Transitions HospiceCare, Transitions Kids, Transitions PalliativeCare, and Transitions GriefCare.

This fall, visitors to our Hospice Home were invited to choose a handcrafted heart—each one a symbol of comfort, connection, and care. 💌
As a little Feel Good Friday reflection, we’re looking back on these meaningful moments. We’re deeply grateful to the ANG, The American Needlepoint Guild, Inc and the Embroiderers' Guild of America for this beautiful donation and the warmth it brought to families at Transitions. 🫶💜

A glimpse into “Hands from Kids,” a keepsake art project created with our pediatric patients and their families. We’re endlessly thankful for a team that leads with heart and finds beautiful ways to care beyond medicine. 💜✨

Under the soft glow of candlelight, our community gathered to pause, remember, and reflect during this year’s Lights of Remembrance. We are grateful to everyone who joined us, as each light represented a life, a story, and a love that continues on. Together, we honored those we hold close and found comfort in shared moments of peace and connection. 🕯️💜

“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?” — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Today, we honor Dr. King and reflect on his lifelong work for justice and equality, and how his courage and leadership continue to call us to show up for one another with dignity, love, and compassion. ❤️✨

Hospice care means caring for the whole family — including the furry ones. 🐾 This sweet trio was part of a family we served, and this week we were grateful to partner with Longleaf Animal Rescue to ensure they were transferred to rescue, where they’ll receive lifelong medical care and the chance to find safe, loving forever homes. No one should have to worry about what will happen to their pets at the end of life. We’re honored to help carry that burden, so families can focus on what matters most: time, love, and comfort. 💜

An evening of light, love, and lasting remembrance. ✨🕯️

On January 13 & 14, our campus will once again glow with hundreds of luminaries as we honor the lives of those who have died and hold space for all who grieve. Lights of Remembrance offers a peaceful, self-guided walk through illuminated pathways, inviting reflection, connection, and comfort in community. Join us! 💜
