We currently serve:What We Do & How to Start Care
Choosing hospice is about prioritizing comfort and quality of life. We guide you through each step, including:
- Hospice eligibility: usually based on a physician’s certification and Medicare guidelines (such as a prognosis of six months or less and a decision to focus on comfort).
- Starting hospice care: our team coordinates directly with your doctor and family to begin services quickly and seamlessly.
The Four Levels of Hospice Care
Hospice care adapts to each patient’s needs. At Aspen Grove Hospice, we provide all four Medicare-defined levels of care:
Routine Home Care
Ongoing support where you live, focused on comfort and daily needs.
Continuous Care
Short-term, round the clock nursing when symptoms require extra support.
General Inpatient Care
For symptom management that cannot be provided at home.
Respite Care
Up to 5 days of short-term care to provide family caregivers with rest and relief.

When Hospice Care May Be the Right Next Step
Most families don't arrive at this decision all at once. It often starts with a quiet feeling: that curative treatments aren't working the way they used to, or that your loved one seems more tired than they did last month.
According to Medicare guidelines, hospice care is typically appropriate when a physician certifies a prognosis of six months or less if the illness follows its expected course, and when the patient and family choose to focus on comfort rather than curative treatment.
Some common signals families notice:
- Frequent hospitalizations or ER visits with little improvement
- Declining appetite, weight loss, or increased fatigue
- A serious illness that is no longer responding to treatment
- Unmanaged pain, breathlessness, or other distressing symptoms
- A desire to be home, surrounded by family, rather than in a clinical setting
Hospice isn't about giving up. It's about shifting focus: to comfort, to quality of life, and to the time that matters most.
If any of these sound familiar, a conversation with our team costs nothing and obligates you to nothing. We'll listen, answer your questions honestly, and help you understand whether hospice is the right fit right now.
Hospice Care Designed Around the Patient's Daily Needs
No two patients are in the same place - physically, emotionally, or spiritually. That's why Aspen Grove Hospice builds each care plan around the individual, not a standard protocol.
From the day care begins, an interdisciplinary team coordinates every aspect of support so your family isn't left managing it alone.
What that looks like in practice:
- Registered Nurses visit regularly to monitor symptoms, manage medications, and respond when something changes - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
- Certified Nursing Assistants provide hands-on personal care, helping with bathing, grooming, and daily comfort
- Social Workers help families navigate decisions, access resources, and process what's happening emotionally
- Spiritual Care is available for patients and families of any background or belief - or none at all
- Durable Medical Equipment - including hospital beds, wheelchairs, and oxygen - is delivered directly to the home at no extra cost under Medicare
- Wound Care is provided on-site so patients don't need to travel for treatment
- Bereavement Care continues for families for up to a year after a loved one passes
Care is provided wherever your loved one calls home - a private residence, assisted living facility, or skilled nursing community across Denver, Aurora, and the surrounding Front Range.
All services are covered under the Medicare Hospice Benefit at no cost to eligible patients.
