Consumers may locate a hospice agency or palliative care program in the state through the Find a Provider button. A wealth of information is available under Consumer Information on how hospice and palliative care providers care for those with a life-limiting illness.

 

Hospice is a philosophy of care that accepts death as a natural part of life. Palliative Care focuses on comfort measures - alleviating symptoms.  The goal is to provide physical, emotional and spiritual support to patients and their families.

 

WSHPCO, a non-profit organization of hospice and palliative care providers, stands out as a leader in promoting access to quality, compassionate end-of-life care.
