| Welcome to The Gateway House of Peace . . . |
 Gateway House of Peace is a Not-for-Profit organization that is committed to nurturing hope and healing when lives are touched by the transition that family illness and care giving can bring.
Many terminally ill people and their loved ones discover that staying at home through the course of an illness is neither appropriate nor possible. For these people, the early weeks or months may go well, but as illness progresses, home- based care becomes more difficult. Some suffer great pain or have symptoms that become too complex for the family to manage successfully, even with help from visiting hospice team members.
Some families may be exhausted and on the verge of illness from the emotional arid physical toll of providing care. These people and their loved ones need a place that will provide loving, compassionate end-of-life care.
The Gateway House of Peace will provide people who are at the end of their life and their families with vitally needed support and care in a safe and loving environment. Individuals under the medical care of hospice will receive free care, 24/7, by Gateway House of Peace volunteers and staff.
The Gateway House of Peace will span the continuum of care, offering a place where a person can stay for a few days or a few weeks. It will be truly inclusive; a home-like setting where families can come and, know a loved one is receiving care in a warm, comfortable setting; freeing them to be exactly what they were meant to be…family and friend.
