About Hospice for Dementia in Cottonwood Heights
Advanced dementia is a terminal condition, and families often do not realize that hospice care is available and appropriate. Our dementia-focused hospice program provides specialized comfort care that addresses the unique needs of patients with advanced Alzheimer's disease and other dementias — including pain management, behavioral support, nutrition guidance, and family education. We help families understand what to expect and how to provide meaningful connection during this stage.
