ECU Health Home Hospice
ECU Health Inpatient Hospice House
Sometimes hospice patients have symptoms that are difficult to manage at home. At The Service League of Greenville Inpatient Hospice, patients receive 24 hour-a-day care to maximize comfort. Patients and their families can be together in a home-like environment as hospice staff works to stabilize a patient’s symptoms while providing comfort and support.
