The mission of Ohio’s Hospice of Miami County is to provide superior care and services to each patient in our care, as well as to offer comfort to their families. In extending these services, we hope to always celebrate and honor the lives of those we serve at end of life. May each day be one where we Celebrate Life!

It is easy to define our days by the worries, fears and problems that can consume our time and energy. Instead, we encourage everyone to make this day a focus on the joy and beauty we experience but often overlook. By Celebrating Life today, we can take the first step in a commitment to concentrate more everyday on the goodness, the grace and the gratifying opportunities we have that make life worth living. Celebrate Life today – and everyday.
