Vision:  St. Mary’s Hospice & Palliative Care provides whole person/family care at the end of life to patients and families of all ages and diversity through service, leadership, education and research opportunities.   Mission:  St. Mary’s Hospice & Palliative Care is a regional program of excellence that empowers communities to embrace the natural process of dying.

Being diagnosed with a life-limiting illness or injury is the beginning of an incredibly difficult, emotional journey. This journey is not one you need to take alone.

The basic principle of St. Mary’s Hospice & Palliative Care program is to support people in living until they die. That means we embrace patients and their loved ones with support that helps them along this path. Our goal is to provide an extraordinary level of service to ensure that you and your family receive the compassion and dignity you deserve at the end of life — allowing you to live life to the fullest. St. Mary's Hospice provides these services throughout the Northland.

Learning about hospice and palliative care is an important first step because this knowledge will empower you to decide how you want to live, and how you want to spend your final days.  Read MORE about hospice and palliative care...
