    Description

    Hospice El Paso is the oldest and largest non-profit hospice organization in the community. We were founded by El Pasoans for the sole purpose of providing specialized care, comfort and support to persons with a terminal illness, regardless of their ability to pay.

    Our main focus is maximizing the remaining quality of life for the dying, while also providing support for their caregivers and loved ones. Specialized teams provide compassionate comfort and care and are comprised of physicians, registered nurses (RNs), certified nursing assistants, social workers, chaplains, plus admissions counselors and support staff.

    The majority of these services are provided at home. Hospice care can also be provided in nursing, foster, and assisted living homes, along with rehabilitation centers and skilled nursing facilities.

    The "Center for Compassionate Care" is the city's first stand-alone "hospice in-patient facility." We provide acute hospice care in a quiet and comfortable setting. In this home-like setting, patients receive 24-hours of specialized skilled care when pain and symptoms cannot be managed in a home environment.
