Cornerstone Hospice and Palliative Care was founded in 1984 in Lake County to serve patients and families seeking quality and dignity in their lives while coping with an end-of-life illness. Today, our coverage area includes Lake, Sumter, Polk, Hardee, Highlands, Orange, and Osceola counties in Central Florida.  We are licensed by the State of Florida and certified by Medicare and Medicaid. Hospice is respected as the organization that provides quality professional care to people with any serious, complex illness while also assisting their families.

Cornerstone Hospice and Palliative Care is not a place, but a philosophy of care with an emphasis on quality of life.  Through Hospice care, patients are able to maintain dignity, self-respect, and personal control over their lives.

Since 1984, Cornerstone Hospice has helped patients and families live life to the fullest. The goal is to maintain the highest quality of life to the greatest extent possible and to provide dignity, choices and control. Although Hospice enables patients to live at home, while showing them respect and preserving self-esteem, they do not have to be home-bound.   Hospice never takes away hope; rather it provides peace and comfort.                                         

Cornerstone Hospice makes its services available to all individuals facing life-limiting illnesses, and their families, without regard to age, gender, national origin, sexual orientation, disability, diagnosis, cost of therapy, ability to pay, or life circumstances.  We do not impose any value or belief system on our patients or their families and respect the values and belief systems of our patients and their families.
