About Hospice of Orange & Sullivan
Hospice is a specialized concept of care designed to provide comfort and support to patients and their families when a life-limiting illness no longer responds to cure-oriented treatments. Hospice care neither hastens nor postpones death. The goal of hospice care is to improve the quality of a patient's life by offering comfort and dignity. Hospice care is provided by a team approach of specially trained professionals, volunteers and family members.

✨ Earlier this week, we welcomed Johanna Contreras the District Director & Deputy Chief of Staff for Pat Ryan to our Kaplan Family Hospice Residence.
The visit included a tour of our 11-bed facility, discussions about how the cost of care far exceeds what insurance covers, and got a chance to see firsthand the incredible, compassionate work that happens here every day. 💙
We look forward to growing our relationship of support, advocacy, and community.

🌍💙 Today is International Day of Charity.
In 2024, we were honored to serve 230 individuals and their loved ones at our cherished Kaplan Family Hospice Residence. Just last month, we celebrated the life and legacy of Susan, one of our beloved patients who spent many months surrounded by the care and compassion of our staff.
Your generosity makes this possible. Please consider making a donation today, in the spirit of the #InternationalDayOfCharity to help us continue providing outstanding support for patients and families in our community. 🙏

🌿 At your local Hospice provider, we truly do #takecare by providing quality, compassionate supports to individuals and families throughout Orange & Sullivan County.
⭐️ Those supports come from the care provided by our staff. That's why we try to pay it forward and recognize the extremely hard work they do.
🥗 We're not a family, we're a support system. We look out for one another, help each other to explore and advance, and lift each other up. And occasionally, facilitate an indoor garden (say hi to Harmony Peach).
👍 Sounds good? Join us:

🌿 On a Sunday of all days, meet our #staffspotlight, Sister Ann Daly from our Spiritual Care Department.
🙏 For years, Sister Ann has been more than a chaplain, more than a coworker — she has been a steady, guiding light in moments when hearts feel heavy and the path ahead feels uncertain.
💚 Sister Ann has sat beside patients in their final moments, offering comfort and peace. She has held the hands of grieving families, giving them strength when they felt they had none left. And she has been there for her coworkers, offering encouragement, prayer, and kindness that lifts the spirit in ways words can’t always capture.
💜 Sister Ann, you have touched the souls of so many, and for that we are so very grateful.
