Methodist Charlton Inpatient Hospice Unit

In fall 2012, Odyssey Hospice opened and began independently operating the Inpatient Hospice Unit at Methodist Charlton to offer families support and care for loved ones who are nearing the end of life.

Hospice care is a compassionate, patient-centered approach to care focused on maintaining dignity, increasing quality of life, and providing comfort, including pain and symptom management.

Hospice care is for patients with a variety of diagnoses, including:

• Heart disease
• Stroke
• Liver disease
• Alzheimer's disease
