Hospice Care
Hospice care encircles you and your family with comfort, pain management, honesty and respect for your decisions.
Highly-specialized hospice care comes to Augustana Minneapolis from Grace Hospice and Guardian Angels † Elim Home Care and Hospice, who bring physical, emotional and spiritual care for people with life-limiting illnesses and support for their loved ones. Your family can hand over the worries of daily physical care, allowing all of you to focus on this precious time together. The chaplains are available for prayer, Bible reading, guidance and fostering connections with God and family. Chaplains are always respectful of personal and cultural preferences.
These organizations will come to patients wherever they call home.
“My mom has been a resident for about six months. It is so comforting to all of my family to know that she is in the caring hands of the entire staff.
Thanks to you all.”
—Deborah, daughter
