Hospice of the Foothills was founded in 1979 by a group of volunteers with the goal of developing a program which would meet the unique needs of terminally ill patients and their families. The philosophy that guided the first board of directors was to develop a broad base of community involvement and support for the Hospice program. The original philosophy continues to guide its today and makes Hospice volunteers and donors an integral part of its organization. The Hospice program was based on three fundamental objectives help those with life limiting illness to live with dignity, serenity and comfort, support the patient and their families through the time of death, continue to support the bereaved family after the loss of a loved one.
