Homeside Hospice

Providing Dignity, Comfort, and Inner Peace


We are the only nurse owned and nurse operated hospice in the state of New Jersey.

Kathleen Folliard, RN, one of the founders of Homeside Hospice, passed peacefully on January 14, 2011 leaving us a legacy of inner peace and universal spirituality. We mourn the loss of our partner Kathleen and miss her dearly. Kathleen spent 15 years in a Sub Acute facility caring for Pediatric patients. She then became a home care nurse, caring for pediatric patients. In 2001 she joined a large hospice where she was a Regional Manager. In 2005 she collaborated with fellow nurses and became a founder of Homeside Hospice. Kathleen was a Reiki Master and enjoyed all palliative modalities which provide emotional and spiritual support to our patients on their journey. She will be missed by all who loved her and benefited from her teaching.
