Founded in 1988, the organization brings together a multidisciplinary team that includes physicians, nurses, medical social workers, spiritual care coordinators, therapists, aides, volunteers, and bereavement counselors. Based in Lockport, New York, it is the sole hospice provider in Niagara County, serving as a central resource for end-of-life care in the region.
