Hospice care supports individuals who have chosen to stop pursuing aggressive treatment for a terminal illness. The focus shifts from curing the disease to providing comfort, dignity, and quality of life through expert symptom and pain management. Care plans are personalized to reflect each patient’s goals, values, and wishes.
Shalom Hospice provides compassionate care, and volunteers play a vital role in that support. Our volunteer program includes companionship visits, respite support for caregivers, hairdressing and grooming services, animal-assisted visits, and other meaningful ways to bring comfort and connection to patients and families.
