Ohio’s Hospice of Central Ohio Reflects on 40 Years of Providing Hospice Care to Our Community

Ohio’s Hospice of Central Ohio began with a small group of visionaries giving their time and talent so compassionate care and a comforting presence were available to those facing a life-limiting illness.  

In 2022, Ohio’s Hospice of Central Ohio celebrated 40 years of service to the community. Since 1982, it has been our privilege to care for your loved ones. 

Throughout the past 40 years, we have had the privilege to provide care for thousands of our friends and neighbors. As a not-for-profit, community-based hospice provider, we are dedicated to supporting the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of patients and families wherever they call home. 

Our service area has grown from the counties the original Hospice of Licking County served. Today, we have offices in Newark, Columbus, Lancaster, and Zanesville and serve 13 counties across central Ohio. We also have two inpatient care centers for symptom management in Licking Memorial Hospital and in The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. 

One thing has remained the same since our founding: our mission and focus to celebrate the lives of those we have the privilege of serving by providing superior care and superior services to each patient and family. 

Thanks to the support from generous donors throughout the community, we continue to serve more patients and their families every year. We thank you for supporting our mission now and always.
