Serving the hospice community
The Virginia Association for Hospices is a nonprofit association created to:
- support hospice patients and their families
- address the needs of hospice care providers
- promote the concept of hospice care in the Commonwealth of Virginia
Our Web site has two sections. The public section offers basic information to those who are new to the concept of hospice care and would like to learn more about it. The members section contains news, education and networking resources for hospice care professionals.
If you are new to the concept of hospice care...
Access our "About Hospice" page to find out what makes hospice care different and how to choose a hospice care provider. To learn how to control decisions concerning your health care, consult our "Advance Directives" page. For a list of hospice care facilities in your area, click "Find a Nearby Hospice."
