Why ExpectCare Hospice?

About Us

Privately Owned, Community Focused, Patient Centered

Because we are privately and locally owned, our focus remains where it belongs: on the people, families, and communities we serve. We are not part of a large, distant corporation with decisions made far from the bedside. Our local leadership stays involved, listens closely, and gives our care team the ability to respond personally to each patient’s needs. Here, families are never just a number—they are neighbors, and their comfort, dignity, and peace of mind matter deeply to us.

Our Promise

The Values That Guide Our Care

At ExpectCare Hospice, we believe every person deserves to be seen, heard, and cared for as an individual — not simply defined by an illness or diagnosis. Guided by values of compassion, respect, and service, we provide hospice care that honors the beliefs, traditions, and wishes of every patient and family we serve.

Our team takes the time to understand what matters most to each person, offering support that may include emotional comfort, spiritual care, practical guidance, or simply a compassionate presence. We walk alongside patients and families with dignity, respect, and a commitment to making every moment meaningful.

Care

Care for Every Person

While our foundation is Christ-centered, we welcome and respectfully serve people of all faiths and backgrounds. We honor each patient’s beliefs, values, wishes, and traditions.

Respect

Respect for Every Journey

Every person’s journey is unique. We provide care that reflects each patient’s goals, preferences, culture, and definition of comfort while supporting the families who walk alongside them.

Integrity

Integrity and Accountability

As a privately and locally owned hospice, we make decisions close to home and remain focused on what matters most: our patients, families, and care team.

Group

We Begin by Listening

We believe the best care begins by listening. By understanding each patient’s wishes and each family’s concerns, we provide guidance, support, and compassionate care throughout the hospice journey.

Our Culture

A Team That Truly Cares

Our culture is built around people — our patients, their families, our team members, and the communities we serve. ExpectCare Hospice brings together experienced hospice professionals and community volunteers who share a commitment to making a meaningful difference in the lives of others.

That spirit of community can be seen throughout our work. From volunteers creating Life Journals with patients to providing companionship and meaningful activities, we look for ways to go beyond clinical care and create moments that families can cherish.

Our Leadership

Leading With Purpose and Accountability

Strong hospice care begins with leadership that understands both the clinical responsibility and the human responsibility of caring for patients and families.

Our leaders work alongside our interdisciplinary teams to ensure patients and families receive coordinated, personalized care while supporting the professionals who serve them every day.
