A Different Kind of Hospice

Hospice Caring, Inc. is a different kind of hospice.  It is the only non-medical volunteer hospice in Montgomery County.  Since 1989, Hospice Caring's trained volunteers have provided practical and emotional support to terminally ill adults and children and their families, and to anyone grieving the death of a loved one at no charge.

The Cottage, with its unique history, serves as a resource center for Hospice Caring staff, volunteers and the community.  In this capacity, The Cottage hosts support groups, monthly caregiver teas, patient holiday parties and meetings.  It also houses program staff and their offices.

Adult bereavement support groups are available throughout the county.  Children's bereavement programs include the Good Grief Club, an in-school program available to all elementary, middle and high school students, and Camp Caring, a weekend camp for children ages 8 to 12.

All services and programs are offered free of charge. 

Hospice Caring, Inc. invites you to learn more about programs and services through the topics listed in the left column.
