Celebrating 40 Years of Caring

Help us celebrate 40 years of caring by downloading our free phone app, listening to our podcast, becoming a volunteer, following our social media pages, attending an event, or making a donation. Further, thank you for trusting 40 years of caring with Hospice of Southern Illinois.

Support, safety, and solicitude lead Hospice of Southern Illinois into the New Year as we continue our service to our patients, their families and our community as we have for the last 40 years. We celebrate 2021 with 40 years of caring. With the challenges of COVID-19 and the rapid evolution of healthcare as we know it, we maintain our reputation for excellent end-of-life care. First, you can expect our caregivers to provide support and education you can trust. Next, since 1981, we constantly evolve our care model to ensure compassion, dignity and excellence. Finally, we stand by our mission to enhance the quality of life for individuals and their loved ones touched by a terminal illness. The tradition of living life to the fullest, no matter what time we have left, remains our focus.
Not all hospices are the same.
