All Life is Sacred:

For the terminally ill, the reality of death can produce fears of dying, being alone, being in pain, or burdening others. Mercy House is an alternative to that fear. Mercy House embraces the belief that all life is sacred and that death is a natural part of life and remains committed to the philosophy that we are neither meant to shorten our time, nor suffer. Motivated by these simple tenets, we have created a sanctuary where terminally ill patients can rest, reflect, and receive nurturing care to live out their last days well. Individuals are assured a place where their fears can be alleviated and their needs for pain and symptom management are met.

Features of Mercy House:

• Comfortable, private rooms with bay windows
• 24-hour care
• Live-in resident manager
• Beautiful, home-like setting
• Mercy's patient- and family-centered philosophy, assures you will be treated with respect, compassion, and dignity

What is Hospice? Hospice is a form of health care that provides emotional support and care for people in the final phase of a terminal illness, allowing them to live as fully and comfortably as possible. Hospice does not hasten or postpone death. Rather, it affirms life and regards dying as a natural process.

How Can You Support Mercy House? Mercy House is a not-for-profit program available to everyone, regardless of ability to pay. Mercy House depends on volunteers and community financial support to ensure that hospice care is available to those who need it. Mercy Foundation has established an endowment fund to support people who can benefit from the services and care available through Mercy House. If you have a need for financial aid or would like information on how to make a gift to the Mercy House Endowment Fund, please e-mail Foundation, or call (541) 677-4818.
