Hospice is not a place, but a concept. It is a compassionate, patient centered
approach to medical care for those patients for whom curative measures are no longer an
option. At Hospice of Texas, our team stays focused on providing dignity for our patients,
improving their quality of life and controlling pain and symptoms. We teach the patient and
their family what to expect as their disease progresses in a manner to ease the anxiety
associated with this stage of life. We develop a plan of care individualized for each
patient and to meet the family’s needs.
Hospice staff is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Our physicians work hand-in-hand
with our hospice staff to provide quality patient care. The journey at the end of life should
not be taken alone; we at Hospice of Texas will support our patients and their families as they
tread this lonely and sometimes frightening path, providing physical, emotional, and spiritual
comfort along the way.
