A Different Kind of Care
Sometimes, our journey requires a different kind of care. Dover Health understands the complexities of hospice care and approaches it with the same warmth and dedication as our other services.

Hospice care provides solace to individuals and their families facing serious illness by easing their stress, pain, and symptoms. We focus on enhancing quality of life when time is limited.

The most precious moments are the ones spent together. Many people associate hospice solely with end-of-life care, but it encompasses so much more. We help those facing life-limiting illnesses and their families, so they can cherish every moment available.

Being a primary caregiver can be a challenge, and when it comes to end-of-life care, the support of a team that has navigated hospice before is invaluable.
