Pikes Peak Hospice & Palliative Care

Pikes Peak Hospice & Palliative Care Pikes Peak Hospice & Palliative Care has been the community leader in hospice care for 41 years, founding the hospice movement in the Pikes Peak region.

Pikes Peak Hospice & Palliative Care has been the community leader in end-of-life care for almost 42 years, founding the hospice movement in the Pikes Peak region in 1980. We are the only nonprofit, community-based hospice in El Paso and Teller Counties.Every year, we help over 2,000 patients and families navigate the challenges of a life-limiting illness with comfort, dignity and fulfillment. In

a business like this, you don’t thrive for this long, nor serve as many patients as we have, without holding to a particular standard. Ours is simple: We believe that hospice care is about living and that every patient and family deserves consistent expert care and compassionate personal attention.

Celebrating Nurses Week one cup of coffee at a time.

Pikes Peak Hospice & Palliative Care was honored to partner with Sunny Vista Senior Living for a special Nurses Week coffee and pastries cart celebration. Our team decorated a cart and visited nurses stations throughout the community, serving hot and iced coffee along with pastries to the incredible nurses, caregivers, and staff who provide compassionate care every day.

Small moments of appreciation can make a big impact, and we are grateful for the opportunity to recognize the hardworking healthcare professionals who support patients and families with kindness, dedication, and compassion.

Thank you to Sunny Vista Living Center for welcoming us and for the important partnership we share in caring for our community.

This weekend, more than 200 community volunteers gathered at Pikes Peak National Cemetery to place flags in honor of those who served our nation. For the past three years, Pikes Peak Hospice & Palliative Care has been honored to help coordinate Flags for Fallen Veterans through our We Honor Veterans program. We recognize that veterans often face unique needs at the end of life, and we are committed to providing the specialized care and support they deserve. We’re especially proud to help coordinate this effort. Each flag represents a life of courage, sacrifice, and service. On this Memorial Day, we remember, we honor, and we share our grateful appreciation.

Grief deserves compassion, connection, and support.

Earlier this spring, Pikes Peak Hospice announced it would continue the important work of Voices of Grief, ensuring ongoing grief support services for individuals and families throughout our community.

A huge thank you to Girl Scout Troop 40132 in Colorado Springs for choosing the staff of Pikes Peak Hospice & Palliative Care as this year’s Hometown Heroes!

Each year, local Girl Scouts select community heroes to honor with Girl Scout cookie donations, and we were incredibly touched to be recognized by these thoughtful young leaders. Scouts from grades K-12 stopped by this past Saturday to personally hand out cookies and thank our team members for the compassionate care they provide to patients and families throughout our community.

The icing on the cookie? Their visit came during Nurse Appreciation Week, and the scouts made sure to show extra gratitude to the incredible nurses who are such a vital part of the Pikes Peak Hospice team.

Thank you, Troop 40132, for your kindness, generosity, and support. You truly brightened our day!

Nearly 450 of you came together on that wet, chilly Wednesday this week to learn more about the powerful work of Pikes Peak Hospice in supporting patients and their families during their most tender moments.

We are pleased to share that the event has netted $108,500, with donations still coming in! Our hearts are full, because we know this generous community shows up for our neighbors as they face their end-of-life journey.

At Pikes Peak Hospice & Palliative Care, honoring and supporting veterans is an important part of our mission.

Recently, members of our team attended the weekly “Fortin Veterans Lunch” in Colorado Springs — a gathering that brings veterans together for conversation, camaraderie, and connection to community resources and events.

The lunches were founded by Ronald Fortin, whose dedication to supporting fellow veterans has created a meaningful space for friendship and support within the local military community.

We are grateful for opportunities like these to connect with veterans throughout the Pikes Peak region, listen to their stories, and continue our commitment to providing compassionate hospice and palliative care to those who have served our country.

Thank you to everyone involved in making the Fortin Veterans Lunch such a welcoming and impactful community tradition. 🇺🇸
