Why we started
Hi, I’m Josh, cofounder of Ovation Hospice.
I believe hospice care is essential work. Serving in this field for more than a decade, I have been moved by how patients and their families bond in ways they may not have before; a new season makes way for new connections.
It’s wrong for care like this to be monetized as profits-over-people but, unfortunately, I’ve witnessed this mentality over and over again in our industry. The vital component of being present and available for patients and their families loses out to maximizing a flat Medicare payout. I knew there had to be a way to offer a consistently compassionate hospice experience, one that puts people first—always.
We started Ovation Hospice with that vision in mind. To fulfill it, we had two nonnegotiables as we built our team: top-notch quality care and hearts eager to serve. Now, we show up for the families in our care with radical generosity because, well, we can’t imagine it any other way. Thank you for allowing us to come alongside you during this delicate time. We consider it one of life’s greatest privileges.
How we’re different
You deserve promises kept.
We want these difficult days to be remembered
for their connection, not their chaos. We promise:
The best people,
Each member of our team has the qualifications for clinical care and a heart for their patients. At Ovation Hospice, every caregiver considers this their life's work.
offering the most time,
When time is limited, the last thing you want is to feel alone with your concerns. We are proud to have a reputation of being on-site, on time, and always on call.
for as long as we're needed.
Because the scope of hospice care varies, so does our time with you. We are committed to caring for the needs of your loved one, and you, each step of the way.
Ovation Hospice is a Benefit LLC (BLLC), meaning that we chose to become legally registered as a company that creates a “general public benefit,” defined as a “positive impact on society.”
Our core values explain how we live out that commitment:
We serve.
We serve with compassion for our patients, their families, and our team. Service is at the heart of our work.
We have integrity.
We examine our practices openly and honestly, learn from our mistakes, and meet our commitments.

We are better together.
We do our best through teamwork and collaboration. We’re an inclusive culture that leverages the strengths of our diverse talents to innovate and maximize care for our patients, their families, and our team.
We pursue what’s next.
We find energy in adapting and re-inventing our approach; from the way we care for our patients and their families to how we work as a team.
Who we are
We’re both sorry you’re
here and glad you found us.
We look forward to getting to know you. In the meantime, please reach out and schedule a time to meet with our Administrator in your area.
