CommonSpirit Home Hospice Mercy

CommonSpirit Home Hospice Mercy offers an interdisciplinary team of clinicians for our home care patients, including: 

Home Hospice

CommonSpirit Home Hospice Mercy offers in-home and residential hospice care designed to help patients comfortably reach their end of life goals. Members of the hospice team will visit a patients home to make sure they are comfortable and well cared for or patients can be cared for at the new Mercy Hospice House facility. You and your family will help plan the kind of care received and will play a vital role in communicating needs, concerns or questions to the members of the hospice team. We also offer residential hospice at Hospice House. 

Palliative Care

CommonSpirit Home Hospice Mercy offers palliative care services to patients in the hospital at Mercy Hospital, or wherever the patient calls home, which could be in their own residence, a nursing home or other residence.
