Almost 30 Years of Service
Family Hospice is approaching it’s 30th year of operation. That in itself is an accomplishment, but to do that with the number of hospice programs that seem to be popping up all around southern Illinois is incredible. The First Hospice Program in the Metropolitan area was started in 1978 at Lutheran Medical Center and it is gone, absorbed by a large for profit chain that focuses on a myriad of services causing the hospice program to lose its autonomy.
Tree of Memories Campaign
The Family Hospice Annual Tree of Memories Campaign will begin its 27th year this holiday season. As a community based not-for-profit, we continue to see an increasing number of families needing our services.
