Why choose Silverado Hospice for my loved one?
The creation of Silverado Hospice was inspired when our nurses saw an unfilled need for end of life care that truly addressed all possible needs of the mind, body and spirit. In 2004 this inspiration became a reality and Silverado began using our unique and innovative approach to provide hospice care.
What we believe
We believe that understanding and taking to heart all aspects of an individual — their needs, interests, beliefs, personality, etc. — is the only way to truly achieve the high levels of care that are our goal.
Unmatched clinical excellence
Silverado Hospice’s clinical practices are second to none, offering unique features such as a dedicated physician medical director to oversee care, specialized teams with experience in specific diseases and more.
It all starts with compassion
From our philosophy of personalizing care for each unique patient to our care practices and associate hiring and training, there is only one goal – to make the last days of life as comfortable and dignified as possible.
