About Caring for Life

As Madison County’s oldest and only not-for-profit hospice, we have been caring for the life of our community since 1979 by providing hospice and bereavement care to terminally ill patients – and their families. Until recently, our services were primarily focused on outpatient, home hospice care as well as bereavement care. We began a new chapter in 2017 with the opening of our inpatient hospice facility on the campus of the Redstone Village senior living community. This beautiful building offers general inpatient hospice care as well as respite care to patients who meet those criteria.

Looking ahead, we plan to offer outpatient palliative care as the next addition to our Caring for Life family. 

It’s a privilege to care for our patients and their loved ones during this time in their lives. Thank you for your continued support in caring for hospice patients.
