Our Services |
| Hospice of Anchorage works with the patient and family along with the patient’s physician and the hospice interdisciplinary team - volunteers, nurses, social service coordinator, bereavement coordinator, and volunteer chaplain – to provide assistance to meet the transition from life through death and to cope with loss and grief. This may be a one time visit, periodic contact, or may grow into an ongoing relationship lasting weeks or months. |

Hospice care offers people with life-limiting illness the opportunity to live fully with control over pain and other symptoms through the end-of-life. Hospice care also supports families in coping with the effects and challenges of illness. Hospice support may include:

Grief support provides resources and services to anyone that has experienced the death of a loved one, even if they did not receive end-of-life care from Hospice of Anchorage. Grief support may include:

GRIEF SUPPORT GROUPS |
The Adult Grief Group meets twice monthly. The Bereavement Coordinator or trained bereavement outreach volunteers also offer one-to-one support. The Forget-Me-Not Grief Program - for children, teens and the adults who love them – meets on regularly scheduled Thursday evenings. |
| SERVICES ARE PROVIDED BASED ON NEED, NOT THE ABILITY TO PAY. |
