St. Luke’s Hospice

484-526-1100 or 1-800-211-4788 (toll-free)
Hospice’s interdisciplinary team of doctors, nurse, social workers, chaplains, aides and volunteers serve individuals in our community by seamlessly offering compassionate, holistic care through their journey of living. The goal of Hospice lies in the belief that each person has the right to live life with dignity, as pain-free as possible and meeting their goals of care. In most cases, this care is provided in the patient’s own home or in a nursing facility they call home. Sometimes, short-term acute care is provided at St. Luke’s Hospice House in Bethlehem.
