Hospice care in New Harmony, Utah
New Harmony sits in its own valley under the Pine Valley Mountains, off the interstate and deliberately out of the way. Being hard to find should not mean being hard to care for.

Serving New Harmony families at home
This is ranching country and the families reflect it: practical, self-sufficient and slower to ask for help than almost anyone we serve. The mistake we try to prevent is a family managing alone until a crisis forces a 40-minute ambulance ride and a death in a hospital nobody wanted.
Calling early costs you nothing and changes that. We come to you, we bring what the house needs before it needs it and at 5,300 feet with real winters we plan oxygen and heating around the weather you actually get rather than the weather in St. George.
We come to wherever home is in New Harmony: a private house, a family member’s spare room, an assisted living apartment, memory care, or a skilled nursing facility. The goal is always to avoid one more move.
Also serving nearby: Kolob, Pintura and the ranches along the old highway toward Ash Creek. Not sure whether your address is inside our service area? Call and ask — the answer is usually yes.

- Bereavement support for 13 months after a death, for the whole family.
What it costs in New Harmony
For most families, nothing out of pocket. Hospice is covered under Medicare Part A and Utah Medicaid and most private insurance plans cover it on similar terms. We verify your coverage and give you the numbers in writing before anything is signed. See exactly what is and isn’t covered →
Not sure it’s time yet?
That is the most common place families in New Harmony start and it is the right question to ask early rather than late. We wrote a plain-English guide to the signs, the first 48 hours and how hospice differs from palliative care. Read: how do I know when it’s time? →

Every hospice bills Medicare the same daily rate. What differs is how often somebody actually comes to the house — which is exactly what Medicare’s Hospice Care Index measures.
