you can rest assured that your loved one will be treated with dignity and compassion while receiving the highest possible medical care.  At Shepherd Care Hospice, we know that choosing end-of-life care for your loved one is a difficult choice to make.    Under the direction of Dr. James R. Carroll, Medical Director, patients are provided quality healthcare in their own environment through our dedicated and compassionate staff.  Our goal is to work closely with the patient’s primary physician and family to offer quality of life, ensure comfort, and to maintain control of the symptoms of the patient’s illness.
