Comfort that reaches beyond medicine
Our Integrative Programs provide patient-centered comfort care that supports physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs. These services work alongside traditional hospice care — never replacing it, but enhancing it.
They aren’t medical treatments. They’re human touches that bring joy, ease, and connection during a time that calls for deep presence and compassion.
Each offering is part of a holistic approach to care — helping ease stress, support emotional wellbeing, and create moments of meaningful connection. These therapies are gentle but powerful, and always tailored to what brings peace and comfort to the individual.
Whether a patient seeks calm, companionship, stimulation, or simple joy, therapies meet those needs with tenderness and intention.

All services are coordinated through the patient’s plan of care and offered based on personal preferences, medical condition, and availability.
We take the time to listen — and to match the right support to the person receiving it.
These services may seem simple, but their impact is profound. Integrative Therapies can help:
