About Hospice of Yuma
Hospice of Yuma has served the community since 1981, providing compassionate care for many terminally ill patients and their families. We focus on helping patients and families cope with what they fear most about dying - being in pain, being alone, losing control, and being a burden to others. For patients, hospice care offers emotional and spiritual support and state-of-the-art medical care, tailored to the patient's wishes to remain at home, as pain free and comfortable as possible.

Upcoming Events
Ocean to Ocean Gala

This is an opportunity to dress up and enjoy a lovely dinner (which includes hors d'oeuvre and dessert buffets), dance under the stars to live music and bid on beautiful jewelry, art, trips and other treasures that are donated from individuals and businesses for the silent auction.
Light-A-Light
December, 2010
The Holidays bring special memories to the forefront of one's life, and an ancient adage declares that a person lives as long as he or she is remembered. Hospice of Yuma invites people to make donations in memory or in honor of their loved ones and friends, and we in turn send lovely crocheted snowflakes to the donors as remembrances to hang on their holiday trees or in their windows.

The afternoon is devoted to families with games to entertain the children, team roping, barrel racing, and a chili cook-off.
