Advanced Directives
Advance Directives are directives you give “in advance” about your health or financial wishes. These directives have to be completed before you reach a point in your life when you are no longer able to manage these decisions for yourself.
Integrative Therapies
At Lightways Hospice and Serious Illness Care, we aim to address every need of our patients and families by taking a holistic approach in the care we provide including aromatherapy, massage therapy, manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) and music therapy.
