"Because Every Moment Matters" is your opportunity to make a difference in the lives of patients and families facing life-limiting illnesses.
End-of-life is not just a hospice issue, it is a community issue.
Your help will assist us as we continue this important mission and reach out to care for individuals sooner in their disease process who do not currently meet hospice eligibility, but need and deserve the care and support our expertise can provide. You can help Hospice of Siouxland lead the community in opening minds and hearts in order to change the way end-of-life is perceived and addressed in Siouxland.
Our goal is to create:
- Palliative Care Program
To offer expertise and support to patients and their families while they are making important decisions regarding a life threatening illness. Patients and families that are better informed and supported are less likely to be admitted into the hospital in a crisis situation and more likely to have their end-of-life wishes respected.
- Endowment for state-of-the-art education in palliative care
To ensure specialized and state-of-the-art palliative care education on an annual basis for Siouxland health care professions, social workers, clergy and the general public.
