St. Croix Hospice

St. Croix Hospice provides hospice care services in Newton, Iowa and the surrounding communities, offering end-of-life care with a focus on comfort and quality of life. The organization is available 24/7, including nights, weekends, and holidays, and delivers care in patients' homes of choice—private residences, nursing homes, and assisted living communities.

The care model centers patients with comprehensive physical, emotional, and spiritual support from an expert hospice team. St. Croix Hospice employs local caregivers who live in the Newton community and surrounding areas, ensuring familiarity and continuity of care.

The organization provides specialized dementia care through Dementia Care Certified staff trained by the Crisis Prevention Institute. For patients showing signs of approaching end-of-life, the Voyage Vigil Program offers increased care team presence at the bedside during this critical time.

Support extends beyond direct patient care to include assistance for family members and caregivers, bereavement support, respite care, vigil support, and resources for advanced care planning. St. Croix Hospice also offers a complimentary end-of-life program and care team support to help patients and families make important decisions about future care.
