White Rose Hospice provides care and counseling for the terminally ill and their families. The medically-directed hospice team of health professionals and volunteers is dedicated to protecting the dignity of the patient and providing support to the family, while administering care in the patient's home. The hospice team assists the patient in becoming more comfortable and free of pain, in addition to assisting the family through this difficult time. Hospice is a way to deal realistically with a terminal disease. It offers the hope of dignity and comfort as nature takes its course. Patients who use White Rose Hospice live in the York County area, have a terminal illness and are no longer receiving treatment towards a cure. They are expected to live less than six months and have chosen to receive emotional support as well as pain and symptom control. A hospice nurse is available to answer questions, discuss concerns, conduct a home visit and provide support on a 24-hour basis as necessary.

Diabetes is a condition that effects millions of Americans. To educate York County children and adults about the disease, The Diabetes Center at Memorial offers a number of classes and resources. In addition to a Self-Management Program and a Support Group, Memorial offers Cooking Classes, Gestational Diabetes Class, Healthy Eating Programs and much more. The Diabetes Center also holds an annual diabetes event with a creative theme and a summer camp for children with diabetes and their families. The focus of all of these programs is to show people with diabetes that living with the disease does not have to limit their quality of life.

To continue to be on the cutting edge of advances in health care, Memorial Hospital invests part of its resources each year into purchasing new equipment. There are always additional items that cannot be funded through our capital budget that would improve our services.

Donors may choose to provide for the future of Memorial Hospital by contributing to a fund that continues to grow its principle, while providing immediate support through investment payments.

Memorial Hospital is committed to promoting, improving and enhancing the health and well-being of the community we serve.
