Compassionate care when you need it most

BCH Hospice Pledges:

• To provide service excellence in nursing care & emotional and spiritual support to our patients and their families/caregivers.
• To provide a spirit of acceptance, honest communication, mutual respect, quality and compassionate care to all patients.
• To promote independence, comfort and dignity
• To be a resource for any question or need the patient or family may have.

Hospice is a special type of care for people who are facing serious illness and who have a limited life expectancy. Beatrice Community Hospital Hospice is able to provide physical, emotional and spiritual support for patients and their family members in the patient's home, in the home of a family member, a nursing home, senior apartments or an assisted living facility -- wherever the patient calls home.

Hospice care focuses on comfort as opposed to a cure and BCH Hospice staff are dedicated to helping individuals facing terminal illness to experience the best quality of life possible.

Hospice Honors Elite Recognition

Hospice Honors Elite is special recognition for hospices scoring above Deyta’s national average performance score on 100 percent of the survey questions.
