Delaware Hospice, Inc. is a nonprofit hospital-related provider offering hospice and palliative care services to individuals with limited life expectancy, with a focus on managing symptoms and supporting families in the home environment. Based in Newark, Delaware, and licensed by the state with Medicare and Medicaid certification, it operates as the largest nonprofit, community-based hospice serving Delaware and parts of southern Pennsylvania, and holds accreditation from the Joint Commission. The organization emphasizes comprehensive, multidisciplinary care that addresses physical, emotional, practical, and spiritual needs, along with extended bereavement support for families for up to 15 months after a loved one’s death. In addition to core hospice services, Delaware Hospice runs specialized programs such as New Hope, which supports children affected by terminal illness or the death of a close relative, and Transitions, which connects individuals with serious illnesses to resources and information when hospice is not appropriate. The nonprofit has pursued regional growth, including expansion of office presence to Glen Mills, Pennsylvania, to broaden access to its services.
