Crescent Cove Respite & Hospice Home for Kids
Families who are thrust into the role of caregiver for their children often say good-bye to them before they reach adulthood. When that time comes, the family can come to Crescent Cove and extended family members can visit, create memories together and say good-bye while we take on the work of keeping their child comfortable in their last days or weeks.
We provide round-the-clock nursing care while also attending to every comfort of the family members including integrative therapies, making legacy art with their child, and providing nourishing meals.
It is truly our honor and privilege to help these families say a loving goodbye to their children, with our team caring alongside parents in times of uncertainty and fear. It is within the special and sacred walls of Crescent Cove where kids and families feel comfort, love, joy, and light.
Hospice and End-of-Life Care
When an infant or child’s life may be brief or medically fragile, families deserve space to love, hold, and simply be present. Crescent Cove offers end-of-life care in a peaceful, homelike setting where parents can step out of the caregiver role and into spending precious time with their child.
