In the fall of 1979, a handful of dedicated volunteers got together to provide an alternative to curative care for seven terminally ill patients and their families in Charleston, WV, with the emphasis on palliative and support services in their homes or a "home-like" setting. Over the past 40 years, their efforts have taken root and blossomed in the Kanawha Valley and beyond to create a compassionate, professional community of caring that serves thousands of people and their families each year.
Help HospiceCare celebrate its 40th Anniversary this year by getting involved as a volunteer or with one of our many community events. We look forward to continuing to develop and grow to better meet the expanding palliative, hospice and bereavement care needs of everyone in need.
From all of us here at HospiceCare, thank you for letting us be of service to you and your loved ones. Hospice... it's about living! ... See MoreSee Less
