Now known simply as CT Hospice, we continue to set the national standard for home and inpatient hospice care and have become a leader in palliative care. We provide hospice care in patient homes or at our inpatient facility with medically directed, nurse-coordinated, interdisciplinary teams that continue to provide support through bereavement. Together, our physicians, nurses, pharmacists, social workers, clergy, artists, and trained volunteers actively assist each patient and family to navigate the myriad of challenges surrounding irreversible illness. Anyone with a terminal illness is eligible to receive hospice care.  less
