Caring for those with the greatest need and the fewest options, we help people live well while dying.
To provide the most compassionate and innovative care to those at the end of life, in a home-like setting. To shape and share what it means to "live well in the presence of death".
A pioneer in end-of-life care, Joan was instrumental in bringing the British model of inpatient hospice care to the U.S. She also helped craft Oregon’s state policies around hospice care. “I had worked in an inpatient hospice facility in England and learned not everyone can be home or wants to be home,” she says. “I was interested in the problems and solutions for people dying.”
We believe that over the past 30 years, Hopewell House has become a rooted and necessary part of our community. Hopewell House has been a place of caring and love for them and their families and we need your support.
