The MDH Hospice provides compassionate care for people and their families in the comfort of their own home, nursing home or assisted living facility. Our professional team made up of physicians, nurse practitioner, registered nurses, therapists, social workers, clergy and certified nurse aides provides care allowing quality time focused on what is most important to you.

While hospice enrollment signifies a terminal prognosis, it also provides the most unique and personalized health care support for both the patient and family currently available. Hospice care is focused on CARE and COMFORT over cure of the disease.

The MDH Hospice provides care within a large multi-county area covering all of McDonough County and portions of Adams, Fulton, Hancock, Henderson, Schuyler and Warren counties. View our service area map. A registered nurse is on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to answer questions over the phone or provide a professional visit. MDH Hospice provides admission visits on weekends, holidays or after hours.

Our agency is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Our office is located in the Medical Arts building on the MDH campus, just east of the hospital main building.

Hospice volunteers are specially trained and are available to visit, run errands or perform other tasks to assist a patient and family. Click here for the volunteer application.
