“End of life care can be incredibly difficult and overwhelming for families. Here at Unity, we strive to provide families and patients with exceptional compassion, unwavering empathy, quality hands on care, disease education and emotional support throughout this time. The unique program that Unity is offering is one that allows for extended 1 on 1 time, slower paced care, and personal connections that last beyond our years on Earth.” Danielle Losier, RN Administrator
“Working at Unity Hospice as a chaplain means offering compassion, comfort, and spiritual support to individuals and their families during life’s most challenging moments. At Unity Hospice, I have the privilege of providing a presence of peace and understanding, helping to navigate the emotional and spiritual journey at the end of life. Each day, I am reminded of the profound strength and resilience of the human spirit, and I believe that death has so much to teach us about life, love, and what truly matters. Being part of the Unity Hospice team and sharing in this sacred time in people's lives is both humbling and deeply fulfilling.-Roman Archer, Unity Chaplain

Does hospice mean I am giving up? Not at all! It means that you have recognized this season of your life requires a care team that can help you to the finish line, in your own time and with optimized comfort levels.
