A Place Where Goodbyes Can Be Beautiful
In Austin, we do things a little differently. We embrace individuality, celebrate stories, and seek meaning in life’s most personal moments. At Resolutions Hospice – Austin, we bring that same spirit into end-of-life care—meeting each family with respect, listening first, and offering support that’s truly personalized.
Hospice is not about giving up—it’s about honoring what remains. The conversations. The music. The touch of a hand. The chance to say: “You mattered.”
Our Philosophy: Presence, Purpose, and Peace
We believe in care that’s clear, respectful, and centered on the person. At Resolutions Hospice, every detail of our care is built around the values and needs of the individual and their loved ones.
Our work begins with presence—showing up with open hearts and capable hands. It continues with purpose—every moment intentional, every action thoughtful. And it ends in peace—knowing that the journey was respected, supported, and shared.
A Unified Team with One Mission: You
No matter where you are in Austin—from the quiet hills of Westlake to the eastside neighborhoods or nearby towns like Round Rock and Bastrop—our team meets you there, ready to serve with professionalism and soul.
Our team includes:
- Registered Nurses and Licensed Vocational Nurses
- Certified Nursing Assistants and Hospice Aides
- Interfaith Chaplains and Spiritual Counselors
- Social Workers and Grief Support Staff
- Medical Directors and Hospice Physicians
- Compassionate Local Volunteers
This team isn’t just skilled—it’s unified, tuned in, and always focused on the whole person.
Nurses: Skilled, Steady, and Spiritually Grounded
Our hospice nurses bring a rare combination of clinical precision and emotional intelligence. They know how to manage the medical side of care—but they also know when to sit, listen, and just be present.
Nurses provide:
- Symptom and medication management
- Monitoring for subtle changes in health
- Education and reassurance for caregivers
- Coordination with doctors and other care providers
Their presence often becomes a source of calm for families—and a source of strength for the patient.
Creating Comfort, Minute by Minute
Hospice isn’t about “doing nothing.” It’s about doing the right things: easing shortness of breath, calming restlessness, managing pain—so that patients can rest and connect in peace.
Helping Families Feel Ready
We take time to explain every step. Whether a family has questions about breathing changes or spiritual care, our nurses make sure they never feel alone in the unknown.
Present in the Final Hours
Many of our nurses choose to stay close in the last hours—not just for clinical care, but to be a steady presence when words fall away. That quiet support can mean everything.
Hospice Aides: Restoring Dignity Through Daily Acts of Care
Bathing. Brushing hair. Helping someone shift positions. These may seem like simple tasks—but to a person at the end of life, they are acts of love. Our aides bring deep kindness and personal respect into every home they serve.
They assist with:
- Personal hygiene, including bathing and grooming
- Repositioning, skincare, and dressing
- Light nourishment and hydration help
- Creating a clean and comforting space
Their energy is gentle. Their presence is grounding.
Becoming Familiar Faces in the Home
Hospice aides often become a regular part of a family’s routine. Their visits are greeted with trust, relief, and sometimes even laughter. They’re more than caregivers—they’re companions.
The First to Notice a Shift
Because they’re close to the patient every day, aides often detect early signs of change. They communicate quickly with the nursing team to make sure care stays one step ahead.
Chaplains: Sacred Companions, However You Define Faith
In Austin, spirituality can take many forms—from formal faith traditions to nature-based beliefs to soulful conversations about purpose and love. Our chaplains are trained to meet everyone where they are—with humility, flexibility, and reverence.
They offer:
- Spiritual support across all belief systems
- Life reflection and legacy discussions
- Guided rituals, prayer, or meditation
- Bereavement support for loved ones
Whether you need a prayer or simply someone to witness the moment, our chaplains are ready to walk beside you.
Respect for All Paths
We’ve held space for Catholic sacraments, Buddhist chants, humanist reflections, and silent farewells. Our chaplains don’t lead—they walk with. And they always ask before they offer.
Continuing Support Through Grief
After a loss, we don’t just step away. Our grief team stays connected—offering check-ins, counseling, and resources to help families move forward with support.
A Team That Works in Unison
At Resolutions Hospice – Austin, our caregivers aren’t siloed. Nurses speak with aides. Chaplains collaborate with social workers. Together, we keep care cohesive and seamless—so that families can focus on love, not logistics.
Empowering Families, Not Just Serving Them
We believe families deserve guidance, not just care. We teach them how to give meds, recognize signs of change, and care with confidence. When you know what to expect, fear fades—and love leads.
Final Wishes Honored with Intention
Want your favorite vinyl playing? A last blessing by the river? Quiet words spoken in Spanish, Vietnamese, or your childhood language? We ask, listen, and do all we can to honor those sacred moments.
Hospice Delivered Across the Austin Area
Wherever home is—whether it’s South Austin, Leander, Georgetown, Dripping Springs, or beyond—we bring hospice to you. No commute. No stress. Just care, right where it matters most.
A Day in the Life of a Resolutions Nurse
She may begin her morning at a condo downtown, then head to a family ranch in Lockhart. Along the way, she’ll offer clarity, calm, and comfort—one home at a time.
Aides Who See the Human Before the Patient
They bring towels warmed by their hands. They ask what matters most. They create moments of dignity and care that will be remembered long after.
Chaplains Who Make Room for Reflection
Sometimes it’s a whispered prayer. Sometimes it’s a poem. Sometimes it’s just sitting together in the quiet. Our chaplains are there for all of it.
Austin Hospice with a Human Heart
At Resolutions Hospice – Austin, we believe in care that’s kind, clear, and customized. We believe in good goodbyes. We believe that even the last days can be full of life, love, and meaning.
