Hospice of the Fisher Home

Hospice of the Fisher Home Hospice of the Fisher Home provides hospice services in our hospice residence or in private homes. Your loved one decides when to eat, sleep, and have visitors.

Hospice of the Fisher Home is an independent, freestanding nonprofit hospice program in Amherst, Massachusetts, serving all of western Massachusetts. Hospice of the Fisher Home is unique in that we can provide care in the patient's home or in our hospice residence. Patients who start in one setting may change to the other if they prefer. Regardless of the setting, the hospice staff caring for your

loved one remains the same, assuring continuity of care and fostering personal connections and trust. Something else unique about the Fisher Home is that at our hospice residence we structure care to meet individual needs and wishes. They receive as much assistance as they require and are encouraged to be independent as long as they are able. Our specialty is providing expert end-of-life care that addresses not only our patients’ physical needs, but their social, emotional, and spiritual needs as well—and the needs of their loved ones. We gladly offer our services to all, regardless of age, race, religion, or sexual orientation.
