The emphasis of hospice is comfort and palliative care, rather than curative treatment; the staff and volunteers of Serenity Hospice accomplish this through clinical and spiritual excellence.
Serenity Hospice is committed to ease the pain and manage symptoms that interfere with patient's comfort and quality of life. Hospice treats the person instead of the disease, focusing on the family instead of just the individual. In addition, the Serenity Hospice's emphasis is on the quality of life rather than its duration.
