Hospice of Hope Ohio Valley

Hospice of Hope Ohio Valley provides Medicare-certified hospice care to people facing serious and life-limiting illness. We provide specialized person-centered care and support for people facing a terminal illness to live as fully and as comfortable as possible. We not only focus on the patient’s pain and comfort, but we also provide emotional and spiritual support for both the patient and their family. Our specialized Nursing Home Team works hand-in-hand with nursing home staff to enhance the patients care. When time is limited, or when a family requires instruction or support, On Call and Crisis Care teams are available to provide that extra “TLC.”

Hospice of Hope Ohio Valley employs experienced nurses with expertise in pain and symptom control management. Many of our skilled clinical staff hold advanced certifications and additional training in hospice and palliative care. We understand how challenging and stressful it is for a family to look or even talk about end-of-life care regarding their loved one. Our qualified professionals will answer your questions, provide emotional and spiritual support to help relieve your fears and anxieties. From our inpatient center to our bereavement services, Hospice of Hope Ohio Valley delivers a broad spectrum of patient and family services.
