Inpatient Care Facility

Sometimes patients need a level of care that can’t be provided at home. When that is the case, short-term care in our Frances Georgeson Hospice House may be recommended.

Georgeson Hospice House specializes in the treatment of patients who need temporary, specialized care in response to a crisis. Admission to Georgeson House is by recommendation from the patient’s Avow care team or primary care physician.  Most patients stay a few days for intensive care before returning to their residence for ongoing care.

Georgeson Hospice House offers the comforts of home and the means to meet patients’ medical, spiritual and emotional needs. Rooms are comfortably furnished and patients are encouraged to bring favorite items from home. There are no restrictions to visiting hours; family members may come and go as they please and spend the night to remain close to their loved one.
