Hospice of the Northwest is an incredible resource for local families.
Not only for the dignified care they provide, but for anyone to learn more and find support 🩵

How do you know it's time to call ?

Many people struggle with this question. It's hard to tell when someone is ready and choosing hospice can be a difficult decision.

If you or a loved one is facing a serious or life-limiting illness, it’s never too early to learn about hospice care. Our team is here to listen, answer your questions, and guide you through the process when the time is right.

Read "10 Signs Someone May Be Ready for Hospice Care" or or give us a call at (360) 814-5550. We're here to help!

Pre-teens & teens watch and listen to the adults they know and respect. When influential adults are present and involved, teens are happier, healthier, and make better choices. However, parents and other adults often struggle to talk with teens about ma*****na and they tend to underestimate the important role they play when they are involved in a teen’s life.
Starting this Thursday, we’ll be sharing one idea per week you can use to become the ultimate “influencer” to a child in your life!!
