Join our team of inspired, compassionate and caring nurses, aides and staff.

In the days following the diagnosis of a life-limiting illness, many patients, friends, and loved ones are left with more questions than answers. It can be normal to feel uncertain about the next steps and what approach to take as the days pass. But making the right decisions doesn’t have to be difficult. Thanks to the dedicated staff and team of Hand In Hand Hospice, we are here to help guide you through the uncertain days ahead.

In business since 1983, we are a not-for-profit hospice organization in Emporia, Kansas. We serve the residents of Lyon, Coffey, Greenwood, Morris, Osage and Chase County. Our mission promises that:

“WE WILL AFFIRM INDIVIDUAL DIGNITY AND QUALITY OF LIFE WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY.”
