Transitions is a community service program offered by HOSPICE OF THE VALLEYS to provide emotional support, education, and practical assistance to individuals and families facing a life-limiting illness. There is no fee or charge for these services. The program is coordinated by a licensed clinical social worker who meets with the client and family to formulate an individual plan based on their specific needs. The program utilizes caring, trained and dedicated volunteers who offer support, friendship, and respect to the clients and their families.
Referrals to Transitions can be made by physicians, family, friends, clergy, or other healthcare professionals.
