Led by director Dr. James Castillo, the center is the only one like it south of Houston.  Dedicated physicians and staff will provide emotional, physical, and spiritual resources for patients in a specialized and compassionate environment to improve the quality of life for those with a terminal illness.

Hospice care focuses on comforting, not curing, a patient, and ideally that patient would stay in their home and receive that care, but for many families in the Rio Grande Valley that isn’t an option. This is why the DHR Health Hospice Hospital is proud to provide inpatient hospice and palliative care with around the clock assistance from our highly qualified staff.
