  • Communicate

    At Stillwater Hospice, we believe that clear and compassionate communication is essential for building trust, reducing errors, and alleviating stress. By sharing even difficult news with empathy and kindness, we strengthen our connections.

    We believe healthcare is relationship-driven, not transactional. By fostering joy and fulfillment at work and beyond, our team delivers exceptional care. Prioritizing laughter, meaning, and positivity creates a compassionate environment where everyone thrives.

  • Show Empathy

    Empathy is at the heart of everything we do. It means understanding and sharing the feelings of our patients, their families, and our team members. By demonstrating compassion, we strengthen connections and create a deeper impact in the care we provide.

  • Keep Climbing

    Excellence demands continuous effort. Our dedication to improvement ensures each visit upholds the highest care standards. Through collaboration and steady progress, we provide exceptional patient experiences while fostering staff development.

    The care we provide is about more than actions—it’s about creating moments that matter. By focusing on dignity, comfort, and empathy, we help turn challenging journeys into meaningful experiences, leaving lasting memories for patients and their loved ones.

  • Find a Way to Say Yes

    Going the extra mile is part of who we are. Whether assisting a colleague, responding to a patient in need, or supporting families during difficult times, we empower our team to say “yes” and make a difference in every situation.


  • Develop and Foster Relationships

    At the end of life, what truly matters is faith, family, and friendships. We focus on building connections that ensure every voice is heard and every person feels valued. By prioritizing relationships, we honor the human spirit and the legacy of those we serve.
