Hospice of the Shenandoah

Life's final stages can be a time of comfort, growing, and sharing for families. Hospice care offers mental and spiritual preparation for death through palliative care, regardless of age, gender, nationality, race, religion, or the ability to pay.

We provide hospice care wherever it's needed – at home or in a nursing home – complete with training and support for family members and caregivers.

Augusta Health takes a team approach to hospice services, providing qualified professionals to address medical and psychosocial needs. Physicians, nurses, certified nursing assistants, social workers, physical, occupational and speech therapists, a dietitian, pharmacist, chaplain, and specially trained volunteers, as well as Care Home Medical and prescription services are standing by to help 24/7 during this difficult time.

Bereavement counseling is available for one year after a loved one’s passing.
