OUR SERVICES:
CLINICAL CARE SERVICES
Expert care, comfort, and support—wherever you are in your journey.
We provide compassionate care for adults and children facing life-limiting illness—whether they are seeking comfort alongside curative treatment or have chosen to focus solely on quality of life. Our interdisciplinary team works closely with each individual, their family, and their physician to develop a personalized care plan that includes expert pain and symptom management, emotional and spiritual support, and guidance for caregivers.
Care can be provided in the home, hospital, assisted living, or skilled nursing facility. We ensure access to medical equipment and supplies, and we walk with families through every step—offering bereavement support for up to a year following the death of a loved one. Our goal is to enhance comfort, dignity, and quality of life, wherever you are in your journey.
We are here to support you and help you obtain the community resources you or your loved one needs.
HPCWRV offers support for family members caring for a loved one at home or seeking support and guidance for aging parents, spouses, or friends.
We maintain a Private Caregivers List for those seeking to hire caregivers locally.
BEREAVEMENT SERVICES
Grief is personal—so is the support we offer.
Hospice and Palliative Care of the Wood River Valley offers an extensive array of bereavement services for both adults and children, all of which are open to anyone in the community—regardless of where or how the loss occurred. Our offerings include 4-week Bereavement Support Groups held each spring and fall, individual counseling for adults, children, and families, and a variety of printed resources, books, and videos to support the grieving process. We also provide community presentations on grief-related topics such as Coping with the Holidays, and host annual memorial events like the Hospice Memorial Tree Service each December. Every service is designed to meet individuals where they are—with compassion, care, and understanding.
RESPONSE FOR SUDDEN DEATH
Support when it matters most—right when you need it.
Hospice and Palliative Care of the Wood River Valley provides immediate response 24/7 in the event of a sudden or accidental death. A nurse and/or social worker can be dispatched to offer on-site support to grieving family members in the earliest, most difficult moments. When broader community support is needed, our Core Loss Team is activated to offer extended grief services. Through our Community Loss Team, we also provide grief support to schools, workplaces, and other affected groups, ensuring no one has to face sudden loss alone.
