St. Croix Hospice expands care in Iowa with addition of Sioux City location

[SIOUX CITY, IOWA] May 5, 2021 – St. Croix Hospice has expanded service in Iowa with the addition of a new location in Sioux City which enables the agency to serve more communities throughout Siouxland.

“The St. Croix Hospice Sioux City office is a natural extension of our Iowa team, and allows us to expand our services to more communities in the area” says Mandy Cosgwell, RN, CHPN, St. Croix Hospice Chief Clinical Officer. “Our expert clinical teams live in the communities they serve, which means they’re readily available to provide consultations, admissions and care for local patients and families.”

St. Croix Hospice has maintained uninterrupted hospice services during the recent pandemic to support patients, families and residential facility partners. In response to COVID-19, the agency launched additional innovative programs: the Safe+Care Promise infection prevention program to ensure the availability of safe in-person care and the InTouch Family Connection program to keep patients and their loved ones connected even when they are apart. Additionally, St. Croix Hospice staff are COVID-19 tested and have now received the COVID-19 vaccine to enable them to provide the safest possible care for vulnerable hospice patients.

Hospice care provides quality of life for patients with a terminal diagnosis when a cure is no longer an option, focusing on comfort and dignity. St. Croix Hospice surrounds patients, families and caregivers with a team of compassionate experts who support their physical, social, emotional and spiritual needs.

St. Croix Hospice specializes exclusively in hospice with a care model tailored to the unique needs of hospice patients and their families. Care teams see patients wherever they call home, including private residences, nursing homes or assisted living facilities. St. Croix Hospice teams take pride in partnering with families and community providers to ensure a dignified end-of-life transition.
