A New Name.
A Legacy of Care.
Elevate Hospice is now part of Legacy Hospice — expanding compassionate, mission-driven hospice care to even more patients, families, and communities across Missouri and Kansas.
While our name is new to you, our commitment isn't. Legacy Hospice brings more than 20 years of experience caring for patients and families during life's most meaningful and challenging moments. We're honored to welcome you into that care.
Who is Legacy Hospice?
Legacy Hospice delivers the highest quality end-of-life care to patients and families across Alabama, Arkansas, Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee. We believe that end-of-life care is not just a medical moment. It’s a deeply human one. And every person deserves to be treated with dignity.
Our experienced interdisciplinary care teams provide expert, whole-person care directly to patients in their homes, assisted living communities, and skilled nursing facilities across the region. Whether you're a family seeking care for a loved one or a provider looking to refer a patient, we look forward to bringing our added resources, clinical support, and consistency of care to the patients and families previously served by Elevate Hospice.
Your Elevate Hospice Location Is Now Legacy Hospice
When your loved one needs end-of-life care, every decision carries weight. Legacy Hospice is here to walk beside you on every step of the journey–with expert clinical care, honest communication, and compassion that gives families real peace of mind.
