Mountain Hospice

Mountain Hospice Compassionate care of terminally ill patients, their families, and pets. Mountain Hospice was established in 1991.

It was originally named “The Hospice of Barbour County”, but in 1994, the name was changed to Mountain Hospice. Mountain Hospice was started in Barbour County by a caring group of citizens who recognized the people in their community who were dying of non-curable illnesses in their homes, in hospitals, often left alone, and isolated. These caring people united to meet this need and became the founders of our organization. Through their hard work and constant nurturing, Mountain Hospice grew and expanded to provide hospice services to a growing number of terminally-ill patients and their families. The relentless efforts of the founders and volunteers generated funds and donations to help this organization develop and flourish into one of the most outstanding hospices in the state. The positive comments we receive about our staff reflect our long standing goal - to provide “Comfort and Compassion When It’s Needed Most”. The support we give to hospice patients has not only been a great asset to the Barbour County community but has been made available to residents in other areas. Since 1994, our hospice services have been added to six more counties: Mineral, Randolph, Tucker, Pendleton, Pocahontas, and Grant Counties. Services Include:

•Physician Directed Care
•Professional Nursing
•24-Hour bed side care when needed
•Social work and counseling services
•Home health aides
•Chaplain for spiritual care
•Physical, speech, and occupational therapy as appropriate
•Medical supplies and equipment
•Short-term inpatient care for respite or symptom management
•Medications related to terminal illness
•Support for patients and their loved ones
•Bereavement counseling
•Consultations about ethical issues
•Volunteer assistance

A special post for the tiniest of Bryan’s Carolers. These little carolers brought so much joy to the nursing homes and quickly became everyone’s favorite. Smiles, songs, & hearts completely stolen. ❤️🎄

Mountain Hospice team members and their families enjoyed visiting local nursing homes and assisted living communities to share the Christmas spirit in loving memory of the late Pastor Bryan Headley, former Chaplain for Mountain Hospice. Each year, our staff takes time during the holiday season to honor his legacy and the many years patients were touched by his joyful spirit and love of music. This meaningful tradition, started by Bryan, is one we are proud to carry forward for years to come. ⛪️🎄💚

The holidays can be especially difficult when you’re carrying grief, whether your loss is recent or something you’ve lived with for years. While the season often focuses on joy and togetherness, it can also magnify the absence of those we love.

At Mountain Hospice, we recognize how heavy this season can be for those standing beside a loved one in their final days. Navigating celebrations, traditions, and emotions while caring for someone at the end of life can feel overwhelming. Our team is here to provide support so families can focus on meaningful moments, connection, and peace.

Grief doesn’t follow a timeline or a calendar, and you don’t have to walk through it alone. Our bereavement services are available to anyone in the community, anytime. You do not have to be a family member of someone in our care to receive support. We're honored to offer compassion, understanding, and care during the holidays and throughout the year.

Mountain Hospice is here for you this holiday season. Our team is available 24/7 at 888-763-7789.

Our team kicked off the holiday season by enjoying a busy, joy-filled weekend at the Elfkins Jingle All the Way and Belington Christmas Parades. Our employees loved bringing their families, both two and four-legged 🐾, to help spread cheer along the parade routes.

Thank you to everyone who came out to wave, cheer, and help put these events together to make them truly special.

Happy Holidays! 🎄🎁❤️

We had the pleasure of providing drinks and snacks to the Pendleton County High School football team last week as they traveled to the WVSSAC Class A Football semi-finals. Although they did not bring home a win, we wanted to express how proud we are of these students and the hard work and commitment they demonstrate daily, from the playing field to the classroom. At Mountain Hospice, we are honored to care for and cheer for the communities we serve. With that being said, bring on winter sports! Let's go Wildcats! 📣💙
