Pediatric Hospice Care

Supporting Families with Love and Dignity

Caring for a loved one with a terminal illness is never easy, but when that loved one is your child, the challenges become even more emotional and complex.

As a parent, you may find yourself juggling countless responsibilities—caring for your child, supporting siblings who are scared or in need of attention, and making critical decisions—all while feeling overwhelmed.

Finding someone who truly understands your situation and can provide meaningful guidance through the clinical and emotional challenges you face can be difficult.

This is where MJHS Hospice steps in to support your whole family. 

Pioneering Pediatric Hospice Care

Not all hospice programs provide care for children. MJHS is a pioneer in offering specialized pediatric hospice care. We were one of the original advocates in New York State for concurrent care, which makes it possible for children to continue seeking curative treatment while also receiving the invaluable care and support of hospice services.

Specialized Team of Experts 

You can count on our team of experts who specialize in providing compassionate, child-focused care. They address physical symptoms such as pain, fatigue, nausea, and shortness of breath while also managing emotional challenges like anxiety, depression, spiritual distress, and family dynamics. This comprehensive approach ensures that children and their families unique needs are met with care and understanding.

Committed to Guiding and Supporting You 

At MJHS Hospice, we are committed to standing by your side and providing compassionate care, guidance, and support as you navigate this challenging journey. To learn more about pediatric hospice and how we can help your family, visit our resource page on Understanding Pediatric Hospice.
