“You matter to the last moment of your life, and we will do all we can, not only to help you die peacefully, but to live until you die.”
Dame Cicely Saunders, founder of the modern hospice movement.
Located in the Heart of the beautiful Bitterroot Valley. Aspen Hospice’s mission focuses on caring, not curing. Hospice treates the whole person – body, mind and spirit – as well as nurturing the family. When someone has a life-limiting illness, everyone needs support.
We provide compassionate care and expert pain management to people nearing the end of their lives, as well as supporting their families and friends.
A team of professionals serves patients’ medical, emotional and spiritual needs – doctors, nurses, social workers, nurse’s aides, pastoral counselors and volunteers, delivers the care, usually in the patient’s home. They assist with the transition, helping patients stay pain-free, comfortable and fully engaged in their lives.
