In providing care to persons with a limited life expectancy, hospice neither attempts to prolong life nor to hasten death. The goal of hospice care is to alleviate symptoms - physical, emotional, spiritual, financial, social-enabling the patient and family to concentrate on living. The focus on patient perceived needs allows control to remain with the patient. Mountain Valley Hospice provides care that is palliative, holistic, and supportive.
