At Shirkey Hospice and Palliative Care, we understand the complexity of emotions and challenges that both patients and their families face during this time. Our dedicated team is committed to providing support that honors the dignity and individuality of each patient.
Personalized Care Plans
Every individual’s journey with cancer is unique, and so are our care plans. We focus on creating personalized care strategies that prioritize pain management, symptom control, and the overall comfort of our patients. Our approach is not just about treating the illness; it’s about caring for the person.

Facing late-stage cancer is not just a physical challenge but an emotional and spiritual journey as well.

We provide a comforting presence, listening ears, and hearts ready to support patients and their families through this challenging journey.
24/7 Nursing Care
Understanding that needs can arise at any hour, our licensed nursing staff is available around the clock. Their expertise and dedication ensure that every patient receives the highest level of care, whether it’s managing symptoms or providing comfort measures.
Family Involvement and Support
We believe in the power of family involvement in enhancing the care experience. Our team works closely with family members, offering them the support and guidance they need to be a comforting presence for their loved one. We also provide resources and education to help families understand and cope with the process.
Enhancing Quality of Life
Our care extends beyond medical needs. We focus on enhancing the quality of life for our patients through various therapies and activities. This may include massage therapy for relaxation, fulfilling special wishes, or creating opportunities for meaningful interactions and memories with loved ones.
At Shirkey Hospice and Palliative Care, our goal is to ensure that every day is as comfortable and fulfilling as possible for our patients. We strive to honor the dignity and wishes of those in our care, providing support that goes beyond medical treatment.
