Not Your Traditional Hospice


Local Independent Hospice

Volunteer Hospice of Clallam County (VHOCC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization serving communities from Diamond Point to Joyce. Building on more than four decades of hospice experience and generous community support, VHOCC provides industry standard hospice care at no cost to the patient or to government programs. Our services include professional 24-7 nursing availability, grief support, medical equipment lending, and education.

Our compassionate services include:

  • Care that enables patients to live out their final days with dignity, comfort, and peace.
  • Grief support for anyone in the community coping with the loss of a loved one.
  • Medical equipment lending through our community Lending Closet.
  • Education and outreach programs that shift the narrative about death and dying away from death-phobic culture.

At VHOCC, we believe care at the end of life should be about living fully - not about financial burden. Since our founding in 1978, every service has been made possible through community generosity. All contributions are tax-deductible as allowed by law. EIN: 91-1076440.

Our Founder, Rose Crumb
1926-2018
