The 31,180-square foot Hospice House will serve hospice patients who require a higher level of care than they can receive at home. It will provide pain and comfort management for patients and allow family members to rest and receive support from the staff for patients at their “end of life”.

The facility will open to patients in August. Miami County’s Hospice has been serving patients since 1983.
