Adding the Jewish Component to Hospice Care
About Us
Jewish Hospice & Chaplaincy Network serves Jewish patients and their loved ones as they face end of life. Operating from the belief that no Jew should face terminal illness alone, JHCN offers spiritual care, guidance, volunteers and social work for patients and families, all in a Jewish context. The network also links patients and families to the myriad of services available throughout our generous Jewish community.
Since its inception in 1999, JHCN has served thousands of Jewish families in the spirit of Chesed Shel Emes, eternal loving and compassionate kindness. Because JHCN works with every hospice program in Southeast Michigan, Jewish families can be certain that no matter which healthcare system they are part of, Jewish Hospice & Chaplaincy Network will be there to help. JHCN was created by and works in collaboration with Jewish Family Service, Michigan Board of Rabbis, Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit and The Jewish Fund.
