Facing a serious illness can be overwhelming. Hospice care is specialized support designed to provide comfort, dignity, and quality of life for patients and their families during this challenging time.
At Gilchrist Hospice, in collaboration with Inova, we offer seamless compassionate care that focuses on pain and symptom management, emotional and spiritual support, and guidance for patients and their families every step of the way.

With a mission to provide the highest quality care across all stages of serious illness, Gilchrist offers a broad range of services designed to support patients and their loved ones during some of life’s most challenging moments.
As the aging population continues to grow, Gilchrist has strategically aligned with leading health systems across the region to better serve our communities. This approach enables seamless transitions from serious illness to end-of-life care across all settings.
We prioritize compassionate, patient-centered care, support professional growth, and foster a collaborative, mission-driven environment. Our team is committed to providing a meaningful work experience with a strong emphasis on work-life balance.
Gilchrist Hospice, in collaboration with Inova will begin offering hospice services in Q1 2026. Until then, patients and families who need hospice care should contact their current primary care physician or the specialist managing their care. Typically, the attending physician will coordinate hospice referrals.
