Who is Homeside Hospice?

Homeside Hospice is a privately owned hospice operated by nurses to provide quality care for patients. Meet our Managing Partners. Homeside Hospice is distinguished from larger institutional hospices by

being owned and operated by nurses
being small and personal
providing individualized care wherever the patient lives

Homeside Hospice is Medicare and Medicaid certified and licensed by the New Jersey Department of Health. See all of our memberships and accreditations.

Our service area covers most of New Jersey, and in addition to providing care in an individual's private home, we provide care in group homes, assisted living facilities and nursing homes throughout the state.

What do we do?

The mission of Homeside Hospice is to provide physical, emotional, social and spiritual support to terminally ill patients, as well as their families and loved ones, while assisting patients and families to live with dignity and comfort as they cope with end of life issues.

Who Is Eligible For Hospice Care?

Individuals with a limited life expectancy who desire to receive palliative (comfort) and supportive care and no longer wish to pursue aggressive treatments, are eligible for hospice services. Hospice care is available to persons with heart disease, kidney disease, Alzheimer’s, cancer, AIDS and many other life-limiting illness.

Are Hospice Service Costs Covered By Insurance?

Medicare has a comprehensive hospice benefit that covers the full cost of standard hospice services in full. Medicare also covers costs of prescribed medications related to the individual’s hospice diagnosis.

Many private insurance plans also provide a hospice benefit. Staff will work closely with your insurance provider to coordinate benefits.
