Anyone can make a referral to Mid-Fairfield Hospice – physicians and their assistants, the patient or a family member, friends (with the patient’s permission), clergy and other home health care agencies that do not offer hospice services.

Physicians, hospital discharge planners, clergy, friends and family members can all suggest or recommend hospice care. Patients may even request it for themselves. Contact the physician for a referral, or contact us directly and ask for the admissions department.
