We offer short-term 24/7 respite care for up to five (5) days in our in-patient facility. Respite care provides temporary relief to caregivers, helping to ease the burden for families and caregivers, many of whom experience periods of emotional, mental, and physical exhaustion while caring for loved ones.

We offer bereavement support groups, education, bereavement mailings throughout the year, assessment, brief counseling, community referrals, phone support and an Annual Memorial Service.

We help connect people with their faith, regardless of what it is, calling on spiritual leaders from Catholicism, Judaism, Buddhism, and other religions to offer patients and families the support they need on their journey.

Unique to Connecticut Hospice, we view the arts as an important component of care. Our art and music therapists and other expressive artists, writers and complementary therapists engage patients and families in individual and group activities that promote creative fulfillment and quality of life.
