Heart to Heart Hospice Increases Its Reach with New Facility in Texas

Heart to Heart Hospice Expands in Texas

Heart to Heart Hospice, recognized as one of the leading private hospice care providers in the United States, has announced the opening of its latest branch in West Columbia, Texas. This new facility, known as Heart to Heart Hospice of the Riverbend, aims to bring essential hospice services to the southeastern region of Texas.

The West Columbia site is positioned to serve the surrounding areas, particularly the counties of Brazoria, Fort Bend, Matagorda, and Wharton. This expansion is part of Heart to Heart's commitment to providing comprehensive care to communities that have been historically underserved in hospice services.

Kelly Mitchell, the Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Heart to Heart Hospice, expressed enthusiasm about this development. “We are excited to expand our services in this part of the state. It’s important for us to reach and support patients and families in areas that haven’t received adequate care,” she stated. This sentiment highlights the organization's mission to extend compassionate care to those in need.

Since its inception in 2003, Heart to Heart Hospice has dedicated itself to serving individuals with life-limiting illnesses, along with their families. Operating across 63 locations in four states—Indiana, Michigan, Oklahoma, and now Texas—the organization has built a reputation for delivering quality hospice care.

Dr. Michael Bond, the Chief Medical Officer and National Medical Director for Heart to Heart Hospice, elaborated on the philosophy behind hospice care, noting that “when medicine cannot provide a cure, hospice redefines hope in terms of a patient’s quality of life.” He emphasized that the organization’s holistic approach focuses not just on the patient's physical needs, but on emotional support for family members as well.

At the new West Columbia facility, the team will work to ensure that patients receive care in the comfort of their own homes, allowing families to engage in the healing process together. “Our mission is to care for the whole person, as well as their family members. This is achieved through compassion, education, and simply being present to provide comfort and dignity,” Dr. Bond added.

Situated at 668 W. Brazos Ave., West Columbia, TX 77486, the new location is led by Executive Director Gene Stevens. Families seeking hospice care can reach the facility at (979) 267-2137. This expansion reflects Heart to Heart Hospice’s larger objective of meeting increasing demands for hospice services in Texas and ensuring families have access to necessary support during challenging times.
