Aspirus Comfort Care And Hospice Services
Aspirus Comfort Care and Hospice Services mission is to provide and ensure meaningful and compassionate comfort (palliative) and end-of-life care. This will be accomplished by competent, financially responsible, caring staff and volunteers who work collaboratively with other providers.
Description:
Aspirus Comfort Care and Hospice Services offers hospice, palliative and grief care. When active treatment is no longer the focus of care for an illness, hospice care concentrates on relieving symptoms and supporting patients and their families. Hospice patients generally have a life expectancy measured in months rather than years.
History:
A nonprofit program founded in 1979, Aspirus Comfort Care and Hospice Services has a long history of providing excellent end-of-life care in north central Wisconsin. One of the first hospice programs in the United States, we partner with physicians, churches and local community groups to provide compassionate care for people in their homes, in the hospital and in other living facilities.
