Hospice · San Angelo & the Concho Valley

Supper at her table, for as long as there is supper.

Hospice care that comes to the house, so the last chapter is written at home, among her own dishes, her own people and her own recipes.

What we believe

Home is not a place to give up. It is a place to be.

Hospice has a reputation for the end. What families remember, though, is the middle: Sunday dinners that kept happening, a granddaughter's quinceañera Mom was well enough to attend, the morning Dad asked for his boots and sat on the porch one more time.

Our job is to make room for those days. We manage pain and breathlessness, teach you what to expect, and stand beside you at three in the morning if that's when you need us.

— Teresa Molina, RN, CHPN, Executive Director

Sample family reviews

What families told us

Mom made tamales with us at Christmas, sitting at the table in her wheelchair, telling us we were doing it wrong. That was hospice. I didn't know it could be like that.
Rosa P.Daughter of a patient, San Angelo
Our nurse, Keith, taught me how to give Dad his medicine and then called every evening to see how I was doing, not just Dad.
Brent H.Son and caregiver, Miles
The chaplain spoke Spanish with my grandmother and prayed the rosary with her. She was at peace in a way I hadn't seen in a year.
Daniela O.Granddaughter of a patient
Dad wanted to see the river one more time. The aide helped us get him into the car and down to the Concho on a Sunday morning. He talked about fishing there as a boy the whole way home.

Good to know

Questions, answered

When should we call hospice?

When a doctor expects the illness to run its course in six months or less, or when treatments have stopped helping. A first conversation commits you to nothing, and many families wish they had called sooner.

Does Medicare pay for hospice?

Yes. The Medicare hospice benefit covers the care team, medications, supplies and equipment for the hospice diagnosis, usually with nothing owed by the family.

Do you have Spanish-speaking staff?

Yes. Nurses, aides and our chaplain speak Spanish, and we can do the whole admission in Spanish.

Can she still go to the hospital?

Yes. Hospice is a choice, not a contract. Patients can stop hospice care at any time, and come back to it later.
