HopeHealth Hospice & Palliative Care
Hospice Is About Hope
For more than 40 years, HopeHealth Hospice & Palliative Care has offered comfort, dignity and compassion to patients and families in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. HopeHealth's hospice team of compassionate professionals are specially trained in caring for people facing serious illness and loss. We are the major teaching affiliate for hospice and palliative medicine for The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University in Rhode Island.
Palliative care can be helpful during any stage of a serious illness, not just at the end of life. Our providers focus on controlling symptoms like pain, breathlessness and fatigue. They also help patients and families understand their options in this very stressful time.
