What is Hospice Care? Hospice care is family focused, physician-directed care for persons with life-threatening illnesses and their families. Hospice of East Texas specializes in medical, emotional and spiritual care for persons with life expectancies of six months or less. Life-limiting illnesses require many decisions about what to do. There is one decision that will seem easier than all the others – contacting The Hospice of East Texas. A non-profit agency, we have been caring for our friends and neighbors in East Texas since 1982. Hospice of East Texas Philosophy Whether accompanied by disease or not, death is a universal fact of life and dying is a natural process. We believe that every person is entitled to participate fully in every part of life in order to prepare for death in a way that is personally satisfactory. We believe that we all depend on one another. Therefore, it is crucial particularly in the last few months of life to develop a caring community that can provide services to patients and their families. Where do we serve?

time. Patients who live in nursing facilities receive the same care
that home patients receive: patients may be eligible be admitted to
