Hospice Care
Read More
Hospice is a comprehensive approach to end-of-life care that provides emotional, spiritual, physical, and psychological support tailored to each patient’s needs. This allows patients and loved ones to focus on the things most important to them, while providing peace of mind that help is always available.
Hospice care is provided to patients who have a prognosis of six months or less and who are no longer seeking curative treatment.
Palliative Care

Palliative Care is specialized medical care that focuses on improving quality of life and comfort when facing a serious illness or complex medical decisions.

“I asked for Lumina to care for my friend in memory care. The attention to his comfort and responsiveness to me as a care giver were excellent. I hope others have the opportunity to have hospice care when needed.“

“I have seen the utmost kindness, responsiveness, and compassion when referring my precious patients who are either grieving the loss of a loved one or struggling with the difficult role of being primary caregivers. In Corvallis, I have not seen anything remotely close to the comprehensive list of services offered to our community, furthermore generally completely free of charge. These guys have taken it upon themselves to care for patients, both physically and emotionally, while also caring for their families’ needs as well. We are so lucky to have such a rad group of caring people in our community.”
