Hospice of Murray County has the same service for all its patients and families regardless of where the care is delivered. Although the majority of care is provided in the homes, it can also be provided in nursing homes, the hospital or at Our House, the hospice house in Slayton.
Hospice is for those people who choose comfort care, rather than aggressive treatment that is focused on cure of the illness.
The goal of Hospice is the hope and belief that through appropriate care, patients will remain at home, maintain dignity and live each day as fully as possible, giving the
patient and the family emotional and spiritual peace of mind.
OUR MISSION
Hospice of Murray County .....a unique part of the health care community, is a free standing, community based, non profit organization. Hospice of Murray County is devoted in providing hospice services to patients and their families with comfort, compassion and dignity during the end stages of life.
Hospice 25th Anniversary
Hospice is celebrating its 25th Anniversary in 2012.
Back in 1987 Hospice served its first patient. A group of
concerned citizens started up this nonprofit
organization with the mission of having support
available to the terminally ill and their families at end of life
service within our reach was realized.
We are planning a 25th Anniversary celebration for
Sunday, June 24th from 1:00-3:00pm at Our House on the lawn.
Watch the newspapers for more details!
THANK YOU ...to all who supported our Hospice Spring Benefit Auction by Volunteering, Donating, Attending....etc. With the efforts made by all, we were able to raise $14,000.00 Without the support of our Communities we would not be able to be celebrating our 25th Anniversary! THANK YOU!!
