10 benefits of choosing hospice care
Hospice care is a special type of care meant for patients with terminal health prognosis. This end of life care is considered special because it is not limited to patients only, it is the type of care for both patient and family. We know that your family is an integral part of your very soul and we want to make this period easier for all of you. The time when you find out about your terminal prognosis is hard for both you and your family – and we are here to ease your burden.

My name is Don Alberts. I do take care of my wife, Eileen, 24/7. When her last Doctor at Noran Clinic placed her in Hospice, it was Minnesota Hospice. Our nurse, nurse assistant and social worker decided to change from Minnesota to Moments. We decided without hesitation to join them. It has been a sooth transition. We have have such wonderful care people for Eileen that the choice to transfere with them was a no brainer. Heidie, Kelly and Annie are the best and you at Moments are very fortunate along with Eileen and our family to have such a team. Thank you for letting us keep all of them. Sincerely, Don
