This Year's Project: Making Memories
About Our Organization
Since 1981, Hospice of Siouxland has been the leading provider of medical, emotional and spiritual support to the seriously ill and their families. Our multi-disciplinary care team offers an extensive array of services to patients and their loved ones. We are grateful to our many partners, including physicians, hospitals, nursing homes, other health care providers, and loved ones of patients who have trusted us to be part of their care team. We serve a 60 mile radius area from Sioux City. In addition to providing high-quality end of life care, we are the only provider of community based palliative care services in the area. We are grateful to our donors who help us provide special touches such as our We Honor Veterans program, Making Memories and with the growth of our Memorial Garden.
Current Project: Making Memories
Our Making Memories program is an opportunity for patients to create a cherised Memory with their loved ones. We work with patients, their loved ones on the memory. We have fullfilled memories to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, special milestones and to honor their military service. Our Making Memories program is made possible through the generosity of donors, vendors and community members.
We would love your help today so we can continue Making Memories with our patients and their loved ones.
Memorial Garden Final Phase
Project Details
At Hospice of Siouxland we want to provide a special place to honor the memories of those that have passed. That's why at our office, 309 Cook Street, we have created a Memorial Garden. It is a peaceful and meaningful place for loved ones and staff to visit.
As part of the first phase, we were able to purchase a new fence, some perennials and annuals. We are so grateful for all the donations we recieved last year to make this possible.
The final phase will include purchasing all perennials, landscaping materials and some decorative pieces. We would be grateful for your support today to help make this an even more beautiful place for years to come.

Grief and Growth Support
Project Details
Grief and Growth is a six week program, administered twice a year, designed for adults who have experienced the death of a loved one through illness or accident. The program provides group support within an educational format. Each week provides a speaker presentation as well as a small group session with others who have experienced similar grief.
Grief is a normal and painful response to the loss of a loved one. This grief may seem overwhelming and at times the feelings you have are difficult to work through alone. Grief and Growth cannot magically take away your pain, but the support you gain can validate your feelings and offer comort and consoltation.
There is no cost to attend Grief and Growth. This program is financially supported by fundraising contributions.
