Harrison’s Hope Hospice began serving patients in 2006 with the belief that hospice was about more than just the medical aspect of relieving pain, it was just as much about being there emotionally for patients and families. Our mission is to provide exceptional physical, emotional, social, and spiritual support, enabling patients and their loved ones to have an end-of-life experience characterized by dignity, choice and comfort.

We are privileged to provide end-of-life care and are dedicated to doing “Whatever It takes, when it matters most.” We are a caring organization whose first responsibility is to do the right thing in serving our patients. We value our team, treating them fairly and with respect while holding them accountable for performing their duties and providing exceptional patient care. We are committed to a successful future for our organization and our staff, focusing on growth, innovation, and continued learning. We are committed to acting with integrity and having a positive impact on everyone with whom we come in contact.
