We believe that end-of-life care should be dignified, comfortable and peaceful.

Our goal for your loved one is to manage their symptoms, reduce pain, provide spiritual support, and ultimately improve quality of life. Our focus is on caring for the person, not curing the disease. We understand the need for privacy during end-of-life, and our private suites provide added comfort.

Ensure care not only for your loved one's physical needs, but their emotional and spiritual needs as well. Nathan Oldenkamp, Chaplain and our Regional Director of Spiritual Care, is also available to provide pastoral counseling, spiritual guidance, and opportunities for prayer for the entire family.

Dove Fellows Program

The Dove Fellows Program is an optional program designed to provide residents with the dignity they deserve at the end of their lives. The program offers individualized care to fit the needs of each resident and their families during the resident's last days.

The program offers several options including:

A dove figurine to signal to our staff it is time to say goodbye to a Dove family member and to stop for a moment and visit with the resident

Staff and outside volunteers who sit with the resident as relief for the family members and friends

A caregiver basket filled with materials such as a Bible, devotional materials, lotion, tissues, writing materials, and music Coffee, snacks and other refreshments for those visiting the resident

A bedside service after the resident has passed away for family, friends, and staff

A treasure box, decorated by Dove Healthcare residents, provided to family to place sentimental items into as they pack a loved one's belongings
