Compassionate care that focuses
on quality of life, not quantity of time

In New York, and throughout the country, Cabrini Hospice care is renowned for helping patients with advanced illness live their days with meaning, dignity and comfort.

Home Care: Most Hospice patients live in the comfort of their own homes, surrounded by the people and the things they cherish most.

Cabrini physician specialists and registered nurses visit patients regularly to help with pain management and symptom control. Clinical social workers offer supportive counseling for both patient and family. Music and art therapists help patients and their loved ones find self-expression and relaxation.

Inpatient Care: Cabrini has a 45-bed inpatient unit for hospice patients who need short term acute care. The home-like atmosphere of the inpatient facility helps the patient and their loved ones feel welcome and comfortable. Visitors—including children of any age, as well as pets—can visit 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The primary caregiver may stay overnight in the patient's room and share meals at no cost.
