Niagara Hospice, a 501 (c) (3) organization, has been providing expert care and caregiver support to Niagara County individuals and families since 1988. The organization has cared for over 30,000 individuals and their families in its 35 years.
Niagara Hospice is dedicated to providing the right care, in the right place, at the right time. Patients, families & caregivers are provided with the physical, emotional, psychosocial, spiritual and bereavement care they need. Hospice care is available wherever the patient is most comfortable, including the patient’s home, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, Hospice House in Lockport, David’s Path in Niagara Falls, and Jeanne’s House in Wheatfield.
Niagara Hospice maximizes moments by treating the patient, not the disease. An interdisciplinary team of doctors, nurses, social workers, spiritual counselors, aides and volunteers work collaboratively, providing expert symptom management, caregiver relief and comprehensive end-of-life guidance to the entire family to help everyone cherish precious time together.
Niagara Hospice’s dedication to providing the highest level of care is recognized by the Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC) for demonstrating a commitment to providing quality care and services to consumers through compliance with ACHC’s nationally recognized standards for accreditation. Niagara Hospice is the only hospice in WNY with the ACHC accreditation.
Medicare covers expenses for most patients, and many health insurance plans, including Managed Long-Term Care and the Veterans Administration, provide coverage. No patient is ever denied services due to inability to pay. Anyone can make a referral at NiagaraHospice.org or call 716-HOSPICE for a free consultation.
