Hospice Care

The Heartland Difference

What Makes Heartland Different

  • You don’t have to give up hope to get hospice. Many patients and the loved ones who care for them say they wish hospice care had started sooner.
  • Treatments that provide our patients with comfort and relief can continue, uninterrupted, even after we’ve started providing hospice care.
  • We don’t require that advance directive choices be made such as a “do not resuscitate” order (DNR) or living will to begin providing hospice care.
  • When you need care, we’re ready to provide it. Any day of the year, any time of the day, we can initiate hospice care for you or your loved one.
  • Our heart stretches across the nation. At any given time, Heartland provides comforting care to thousands of patients in communities and neighborhoods across the country.
  • We’re fully accredited by ACHC, the Accreditation Commission for Health Care. We’ve chosen to follow their additional requirements in order to help advance the highest standards of community-based care.
  • Wherever you are in your health care journey, we’re there to meet you.
  • As mutual care providers, we work closely with your health care professionals to make sure specific protocols are followed closely.

Words of Appreciation for Heartland Hospice Services - Pittsburgh

My mother, Phoebe, was a Heartland patient before she passed away. I want to say how very happy I am to have had Heartland caring for my mother. Faith is a priceless guardian angel; excellent in every regard. Sean is outstanding, patient and never kept my mother waiting. My mother rallied, and Sean had to make the decision whether or not to call me to make the long trip to see her again. He is so sensitive to my making the long trip and suffered making the decision.
Maggie, the social worker, went the extra mile for me. When I thought that money was running out, Maggie rose to the occasion. She looked into a nursing facility I was interested in and got the necessary forms. She is superb. Eric, the chaplain, with a superb voice, sang to my mother. He also called me on the day my mother passed. There is no one like him.
They are all irreplaceable. Heartland set the bar so high. I will never be able to stop bragging about this perfect example of end-of-life care.
