Curative treatment can become ineffective or no longer desirable. There’s still hope. As the only non-profit, community-based, and community-supported hospice organization, Hospice Brazos Valley offers comprehensive hospice care in a life-affirming manner. Our award-winning team of skilled professionals celebrate life, bring joy, and serve to heal and nurture both patients and families. Our service area encompasses all or part of seventeen counties and includes Bryan, College Station, Brenham, La Grange and their surrounding towns and communities.

When Is The Right Time

If you are choosing to no longer seek curative treatment for your chronic or terminal illness, are experiencing poor quality of life, and would prefer care in the home, it may be time to explore hospice care.

Where Care Happens

Hospice is not a place. Hospice care can happen wherever you call home. However, should you require frequent assessment and skilled medical interventions we can do inpatient visits at local hospitals.

What Hospice Care Is

Hospice provides medical, emotional, and spiritual comfort and support for you and your whole family. The goals of hospice are to maximize quality of life, provide comfort and help you achieve your goals.
