Decatur, IL Hospice Updates Website with New Resources for Residents

Glen Ellyn, IL, May 25, 2016 --(PR.com)-- In an effort to better inform patients and family members in Decatur, IL, Harbor Light Hospice has expanded its website at www.harborlighthospice.com with new online information that more thoroughly outlines its Decatur hospice care services. Harbor Light Hospice is a well known Illinois hospice and palliative care provider but the organization also provides compassionate end-of-life care and other quality services to patients and families nationwide.

Many hospice organizations have descriptions of hospice care on their websites that are overly broad and less specific to their local community. This type of more general information is not as useful to patients and families as they research informative resources for hospice services in their local community. The decision to offer more information about Harbor Light Hospice's local hospice care services in Decatur, IL was made due to a lack of information that specifically addresses hospice care in the Decatur, IL area. By developing the informational resources on Harbor Light Hospice's hospice and palliative care services in Decatur, IL, family members and patients can now assess what specific end-of-life care services they can reasonably access and make more informed decisions.
