Hospice

The decision to receive hospice care can be one of the most difficult choices a patient and his or her family is asked to make. Surrounding yourself with medical professionals who understand your personal goals as well as your medical needs and health care history offers reassurance and comfort during a difficult time.

Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital and Westmoreland Nursing Center work with multiple hospices, including Midwest Palliative & Hospice Care Center, to provide the services our patients and their families need, either in a hospital, nursing home or your own home. When medically necessary, our Inpatient Hospice Unit, located neaby, is available.
