Our History:  An early leader in Hospice care  

The Montgomery Hospice was the very first Hospice in the state of Alabama -- in fact, we were among the first in the Hospice of Montgomery Founder Sister Elizabeth Parpartentire nation.

Sister Elizabeth Parpart, Director of Social Services for St. Margaret’s Hospital in Montgomery.  While searching for a way to provide more compassionate care to patients and their families, she heard about a new program in Connecticut: the first Hospice in the U.S., which began in 1974.  She was impressed with their caring approach -- and the positive results.  By 1976, Sister Elizabeth had assembled a local team and launched Hospice of Montgomery.
    
Over the three decades since then, we’ve remained focused on our mission: helping thousands of local families as we've grown to meet today's needs and challenges.
