Hospice of Holland

Hospice of Holland Hospice of Holland is here to help you determine if this is the right time for hospice care, to get a Our first patient was admitted in January of 1982.

Hospice of Holland was founded by a concerned group of Holland area residents who shared a passionate commitment to start a hospice program. With the help of many individuals, and the support of the directors of Holland Hospital and the local chapter of the American Cancer society, incorporation papers were signed in April of 1981. Policies and programs were quickly developed, a volunteer curricul

um was written, and the first 20 volunteers were trained. Executive Director Marian DeVries, Medical Director Dr. Jerome Wassink, Patient Care Coordinator Sandy Byrne, RN, and Volunteer Coordinator Betty Jo Bell each undertook their positions as volunteers. With the help of a lead gift from the Donnelly Corporation, Hospice of Holland cared for 20 patients and their families that year. In 1986, Hospice of Holland moved to “The Blue House” on 8th Street and continued to grow. Generous contributions from the community enabled us to move into our own building at 270 Hoover Boulevard in 1994. Today, we employ more than 90 persons and have more than 200 active volunteers. Thanks to all who have contributed, worked and volunteered to give dignity and comfort to individuals facing life-limiting illness, Hospice of Holland is now among the most respected hospices in the Midwest.

“Hospice is not only good for the person who needs it but for the whole family,” remarked Cindy. “They have so many resources available. They explained what (my parents) were going through, what we should look for, how we could take care of them. I can’t say enough about Hospice of Holland.”
