The Hospice of Southern Illinois Community
Hospice of Southern Illinois was created in your community, by your community, for those in need of hospice services in your community. Founded in 1981 as Belleville Hospice, Hospice of Southern Illinois has always possessed a commitment to provide compassionate, quality hospice services to terminally ill patients and their families in 27 counties in Southern Illinois and St. Louis Metro-East communities.
Since our founding, it has been a profound privilege to serve a steadily increasing number of patients, families, and caregivers each year. Presently Hospice of Southern Illinois serves over 1,400 patients annually. Hospice of Southern Illinois’ reputation is rooted in our deep desire to provide our patients, their loved ones, and their communities with information and educational opportunities about compassionate end-of-life care.
