Overview of Arbor Hospice

What Arbor Hospice provides in Ann Arbor, MI, is hospice care, palliative care, and respite care. Hospice is for the end of life, where comfort has become the whole aim. Palliative care is a different thing, comfort held alongside a serious illness that is still being treated.

Respite care is the short arrangement a household makes when the person who normally does the caring has to be away, recovering, or occupied elsewhere. Grief support runs here as well, under the name Grief Journey Program.

Integrative Therapies is another named program, and Veteran Care and Pediatric Care carry names of their own as well. A family after end-of-life support, comfort-focused care, or a short respite booking has all three in one place. Lawton is the neighborhood in Ann Arbor that it works out of.
