Hospice care is often misunderstood, with many believing it's solely for the last moments of life. However, at Deaconess Hospice Laurel, we aim to dispel these myths by providing compassionate, comprehensive care that extends well beyond the final days. Our dedicated team offers 24/7 support, ensuring that patients and their families receive the physical, emotional, and spiritual care they need throughout the journey. Hospice care is about enhancing quality of life, managing symptoms, and providing support for both patients and their loved ones. By choosing hospice care early, individuals can benefit from personalized attention and approach that focuses on comfort and dignity, allowing them to make the most of their time.

We are thrilled to welcome Brittany Carter, FNP, to Deaconess Hospice. Brittany is passionate about providing compassionate and comprehensive care to patients and their families during one of the most challenging times in their lives.

As a former ER nurse, it's always a pleasure to care for families after a patient's passing - even briefly. But on this side of the coin, being a resource and comfort in the transition to end of life is so special.
Let me know if you have a family member in need of hospice care! I'd be happy to help you.
