About Safe Haven Hospice

Safe Haven Hospice
We are a dedicated Faith based hospice. Hospice is not a reason to give up hope, but an opportunity to reclaim the spirit of life, to reminiscence, to laugh, to reunite, to love. Hospice is probably one of the most difficult decisions you will have to make for yourself or your loved one. It doesn't mean that you are giving up, hospice means being physically comfortable, at peace, surrounded by your loved ones doing the things that bring the most joy and fulfillment.
