Our not-for-profit organization has helped thousands of patients and their families. Since 1984, Cornerstone Hospice has made its services available to all terminally ill persons 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.
