Hospice of Oklahoma County, Inc. is a non-profit agency dedicated to providing
hospice care in nine counties. Since 1990, we have been a partner agency of the United Way.

Hospice of Oklahoma County, Inc.’s mission is to enhance the quality and
dignity of life for terminally ill persons and their families.
Hospice is a medically directed, team-oriented program. We will provide
medical care and comfort to terminally ill patients and their families at
home or in a home-like setting. We establish pain management and symptom
control as clinical goals, and understand that psychological and spiritual
pain are as significant as physical pain.
Founded in 1990 by the physicians of the Oklahoma County Medical Society, Hospice of Oklahoma County is certified by Medicare and the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) and licensed in Oklahoma. Hospice of Oklahoma County is also a member of the Hospice Association of Oklahoma, as well as the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization.
Caring for our patient's and families is our primary goal and they have given us an overall satisfaction rate of 97 percent.
The hospice philosophy of care is one that accepts death as a natural part
of life. We do not hasten or prolong the dying process, but instead strive
to help patients truly “live until they die” – without
the fear of dying in pain, dying alone or dying without dignity.
