Skagit Hospice Foundation
To fund the program and services of hospice of the nothwest to ensure dignified and compassionate care is available to anyone coping with a life-limiting diagnosis.one size doesn't always fit all, especially when it comes to quality of life. Sometimes, a patient needs something that is outside of what is considered "routine" care by medicine and most insurance companies. Sometimes those needs are simple, like a second set of sheets, or a blender for a patient who can only take liquids. And sometimes, these needs can be much more challenging, like the palliative radiation therapy that could help a bed-bound patient walk in her garden again. These needs are called atypical treatments and they are essential to a patient's comfort and quality of life.
