Hospice Vestal
Guthrie Hospice Vestal helps individuals with terminal illnesses live life to its fullest, up to the final moment. Both in care centers or at home, our care teams help patients receive comfort and care when a cure is no longer possible.
We focus specifically on comfort, dignity and pain control by responding to the symptoms, needs and wishes of patients and their families.
Our goal is to help each patient live each day to its fullest enabling them to remain in a familiar and supportive environment surrounded by people they love and possessions they cherish.
We partner with Mercy House of the Southern Tier, a community care shelter which provides a home and a supportive family to people with terminal illnesses who can no longer remain at home.
For more information about Guthrie Hospice Vestal, call 607-798-5692. Our registered nurses are available seven days a week for a no-obligation assessment or consultation.
