Hospice of Midland Incorporated

Pathways is a program offered to patients with an advanced, life-limiting illness. This palliative approach to care is community-based and offers guidance, support, and education to its participants and family members. There is no cost to the patient for this service. All medical care continues to be directed by the patient’s personal physician.

Making life-changing choices is often a challenge for people with advanced or chronic illnesses. We offer support to help identify and communicate wishes and goals of care. This helpful program gives you the right information at the right time. It is our aim to help you fulfill your life in a dignified and meaningful way.

Hospice of Midland is a We Honor Veterans level four partner, the highest achievement, and is proud to serve the Veterans of the Permian Basin with our expert care. We Honor Veterans is a national awareness and action campaign developed by the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization in collaboration with the Department of Veterans Affairs. This partnership is a coalition of our organization, the Department of Veterans Affairs Department facilities, community organizations and others working together to give excellent end-of-life care to our local Veterans and the necessary support for their families. We are pledged to ensure that no Veteran on our service dies alone or unrecognized.

Pet Peace of Mind is a national program that enables hospice patients to keep their pets close to them through their end of life journey.

For many in hospice care, changes in their physical condition may lead to a decrease of previously enjoyed social opportunities and relationships. The pets offer unconditional love, acceptance, comfort and companionship when it’s needed most.

Pet Peace of Mind provides helping hands and financial assistance to the pet owner in need. Caring volunteers are able to assist patients with their pet care needs. This loving support relieves the patient’s worry for their pet’s current and future needs.

Pets pay little attention to age or physical ability; they accept people as they are, making them a valuable companion and friend. Visiting with animals is a welcome change from the patient’s daily routine and can help alleviate the feelings of loneliness, depression and stress. Pet interaction is a heart-warming time to look forward to and provides a great distraction from pain and infirmity.
