About HOSPICE OF THE PIEDMONT INC
Hospice of Randolph is a provider of hospice care, palliative care, and grief support services for patients, their families, and caregivers. Patients ranging in age from infants to the elderly who are facing a life-limiting illness are given specialized medical, emotional, and spiritual care through our programs. Most of our clients are cared for in their own homes, but we also serve in nursing facilities, hospitals and in our own 16-bed inpatient facility, Randolph Hospice House. In October 2019, we merged with Hospice of the Piedmont to provide greater capacity to serve our region. Hospice of the Piedmont and Hospice of Randolph served 2,000 patients in 2018 in our combined, eight-county service area. Together, we will continue to provide the compassionate, customized service for which we are known.
