About Hospice of Orange & Sullivan
Hospice is a specialized concept of care designed to provide comfort and support to patients and their families when a life-limiting illness no longer responds to cure-oriented treatments. Hospice care neither hastens nor postpones death. The goal of hospice care is to improve the quality of a patient's life by offering comfort and dignity. Hospice care is provided by a team approach of specially trained professionals, volunteers and family members.

Beautiful! Thank you.
My pleasure; they are donated in memory of my parents, who both benefitted from hospice services.
My husband received one of these while under hospice care and he loved it. They are lovely and mean a lot to the Veterans.
Beautiful!
