Comprehensive Support for Your Entire Family
Our array of services means your loved one can start with palliative care and move within one organization to hospice care when the time comes, providing a continuum of care that will support your entire family when you need help the most.
Hospice Care
The main goal of hospice care is the comfort of the patient and their family. It is important to understand that hospice is not a specific place—it is a specific type of care provided with compassion and dignity.
Palliative Care
Palliative Care of Denver provides relief to those who have been diagnosed with a life-limiting or terminal illness. Services may begin as early as your initial diagnosis and continue through your treatment.
Grief & Support
Our Grief Center offers a full range of grief support services to help you process and explore your loss, including grief support groups, individual counseling, children and teen support, and memorial services.

The Denver Hospice partners with the CU School of Medicine to help guide the elderly LGBTQ Community
The Denver Hospice is partnering with the CU School of Medicine to help increase advanced care planning for LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer) and other hi-risk elders. The project is funded by Next 50 Initiative*. We are training LGBTQ community members on advance care planning and how to talk about it. The goal is for the trained individuals to share the information with their peers and friends.
Ultimately, we want to increase advanced care planning in a community that typically lacks strong family connections and support. Outfront, the local LGBTQ magazine, features our partnership in the current issue (view article).
*Next 50 Initiative is a Colorado-based private foundation dedicated to funding mission-driven initiatives that improve the lives of the older adult population and their caregivers.
