Oyuna Hospice provides hospice and palliation care to offer comfort to patients

Helping Preserve Dignity In The Face Of Terminal Illness

Once medical assistance can no longer cure disease, our compassionate team of hospice care professionals can help to reduce anxiety, control pain associated with your illness and offer both spiritual and emotional support to you and your family. This added genuine support allows the recipient to be at ease, and their final moments to be completely free from any discomfort and embarrassment.

If you or a loved one have a serious illness or is simply nearing the end of their wonderful life, Oyuna Hospice can provide palliative care that can help. We offer health care services that complement the medical treatments your private physician is already providing to best manage pain, alleviates symptoms and improves quality of life for the smoothest transition from curative care to hospice care.

Additionally, Oyuna Hospice also provides emotional and spiritual support according to the needs, wishes and beliefs of each of our patients individually.
