Mercy Hospice South - 10024 Kennerly

Hospice is not about giving up hope. It’s about changing what you hope for. In this time of need, when you or a loved one is approaching the end of life, those hopes matter more than ever.

At Mercy Hospice South we address those hopes with specialized care and comfort, helping create a warm and compassionate setting where patients can be among family and friends – and promoting the quality of life for all.

Knowing the importance of comfortable, familiar surroundings, our Hospice team is poised to provide its level of care to anyplace you call home:

• A home or apartment
• Nursing home
• Assisted living facility
• Independent care facility
• Hospital

And we offer a variety of services:

• Controlling pain and other symptoms as effectively as medically possible
• Creating and following an individual plan of care
• Helping the patient and family cope with impending death
  
• Offering spiritual support, as desired by the patient and family
• Providing volunteers for companionship and family support
• Coordinating nursing care at home through visiting nurses
