Hospice of Central Montana

Did You Know

Hospice of Central Montana serves both Fergus and Judith Basin Counties and has 75 volunteers from these two counties that devote their time, talents and love to our program.
We served 71 patients and their families in 2007/2008.
Hospice is always on call. Help is just a phone call away, 24 hours a day, seven days a week for patients and their families.
Hospice continues to care for the family. Even after the death of the patient, hospice continues to care for the family by providing grief counseling.
Hospice emphasizes quality, rather than length of life. Hospice neither hastens nor postpones death: it affirms life and understands that dying is a natural part of the cycle of life.
Hospice treats the person, not the disease. The hospice interdisciplinary team cares for the medical, emotional, psychological and spiritual needs of the patients and their families.
Hospice offers palliative care rather than curative treatment. Hospice focuses on pain and symptom control that enables the patient to live as fully and comfortably as possible.
