Hospice Care Facing a serious illness is never easy.

Hospice care is for individuals who have reached the later stages of their disease.

Hospice care can be offered at:

  • One’s home,
  • A skilled nursing facility, or
  • Inpatient hospice facility.
Is hospice care right for you?

Regardless of the location, we engage a team of doctors, nurses, social workers, and therapists to develop an individualized care plan best suited to the patient’s needs. We provide the physical, emotional and spiritual care needed to help individuals make the most of life’s remaining moments.

At Hospice of the Piedmont and Hospice of Randolph, we are dedicated to the belief that everyone has the right to die pain-free, with dignity and with the support of loved ones.

Studies have shown that patients who receive hospice care generally live 25% longer and more comfortably than those who do not.

Hospice Care at Home

For many people, keeping patients comfortable and free of pain is best achieved at home. The ability to make the decision to receive in-home care is a gift to patients and their families. Patients of all ages, with any life-limiting illness, may benefit from in-home services to make the most of each remaining day.

Hospice Care in Nursing Facilities

Individuals residing in skilled nursing facilities, continuing care retirement centers or assisted living facilities can receive hospice care without leaving the facility, comforting patients and their families. Patients of all ages, with any life-limiting illness, in any of these types of homes or facilities can benefit.

Inpatient Hospice Care

For patients needing medical supervision or more intensive services, we have two inpatient facilities that provide exceptional end-of-life care in comfortable, home-like environments. Our 18-bed Hospice Home at High Point and 16-bed Randolph Hospice House are a complement to the other services offered by Hospice of the Piedmont and Hospice of Randolph.

For many veterans, military service is the most important thing that they have done in their lives.” As part of We Honor Veterans, those patients are now paired with a volunteer who also served in the military and share a common bond.
