Sakakawea Medical Center Hospice When a cure is not available, comfort is. Sakakawea Medical Center (SMC) Hospice specializes in comfort care.

Hospice is a program of care and support for patients and families coping with a terminal illness. Our program is designed to enhance and expand the existing support of a family. Our primary focus is pain and symptom management so the patient can have as much quality of life as possible within the limits of their disease process. Patients and their families are supported emotionally and spiritually and families receive bereavement services for a minimum of one year following the death of their loved one. Many hospice patients stay in their own homes or in their caregiver’s home. Some of our hospice patients live at Knife River Care Center (KRCC), or in Swing Bed at SMC. The hospice team helps wherever the patient calls “home.”
Hospice services are covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance. If the patient has no insurance, Hospice support is still available. While no one option is right for everyone, it’s important to know we do have options and can make choices. Every family who faces the loss of a loved one should know there is quality end of life care and support available through SMC Hospice.

We had a wonderful Remembrance Service last Wednesday to remember and honor the lives we have lost this past year. The evening was full of memories, stories, a few tears, and connection with families of our patients. Thank you to all who came out to celebrate these sweet souls:)

It's Right Here... Hospice Care ❤️

At SMC, we believe every moment matters. Our care surrounds patients and families with comfort, dignity, and understanding—meeting them wherever they call home. We focus on easing pain, honoring wishes, and supporting not just the patient, but everyone who loves them. From gentle guidance to grief support that continues after loss, we walk beside you through it all.
