What is the Kitty Askins Hospice Center? 3HC’s inpatient hospice facility has been described as “… not a nursing home and not a hospital! It is a peaceful and glorious place for persons to be free from pain resulting from their infirmities, to rest, be at peace, to relax, to be supported clinically and emotionally while surrounded by their family and friends, to be cared for in a rather luxurious manner as they prepare to leave this earthly place.”
Kitty Askins Hospice Center is proud of its dedicated team of professionals who provide round-the-clock care for their patients in a caring, compassionate manner.
