The Mission of Montgomery Hospice is to gentle the journey through serious illness and loss with skill and compassion. To achieve its goal, an interdisciplinary team of doctors, nurse practitioners, social workers, spiritual counselors, bereavement counselors, and highly-trained volunteers work with patients and their families in private homes, nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and at Casey House, our 14-bed acute care facility.  Montgomery Hospice (founded in 1981) is an independent, not-for–profit organization that is accredited by The Joint Commission, certified by Medicare and Medicaid, and recognized as the preeminent provider of end-of-life care and grief services in the county. Gerry Vent is VP of Philanthropy.
