Quietus
Hospice Home & Hospice Care · New York City, NY

Overview of Quietus

Quietus operates a specialized residential hospice home in New York City that focuses on supportive care for individuals with life-limiting illnesses. Managed by executive director Will Evans, the building relies on an in-house nurse practitioner and a licensed clinical social worker to handle pain relief and end-of-life needs. The property sits in a car-dependent neighborhood of the city, meaning out-of-town visitors and local relatives will need a vehicle to run any quick errands outside the facility grounds.

The daily floor routine blends standard clinical comfort checks with targeted therapies for serious conditions like advanced cancer and heart failure. Staff members remain available 24 hours a day for urgent health needs, while also coordinating guided meditation, therapeutic counseling, and scheduled spiritual services on-site. The team also extends its program to family members by managing structured bereavement counseling during and after a resident’s stay.

Interested individuals can call the main office desk to ask about current room openings or to discuss the clinical admission criteria. The administrative staff can explain how they coordinate with different health insurance options, walk you through the intake paperwork, and schedule an on-site appointment for you to meet the care team.
