Whether you’re calling with questions, facing an urgent decision, or just want to understand what hospice care is, we’re ready. Because when your family needs support, timing matters.

A Local Nebraska Hospice, Backed by a Trusted Midwest Team

Hospice of Nebraska is part of Town Square Hospice — a privately owned, Midwest-based provider with locations in Ohio, Illinois, and right here in Nebraska.

We combine the strength and resources of a regional hospice organization with the personalized touch of a Nebraska-based care team. Our team lives and works in the communities we serve. That means your loved one sees the same faces, feels the same support, and receives consistent, individualized care throughout their hospice journey.

Why Families Choose Hospice of Nebraska

Here’s what makes our approach different:

We respond fast. Calls are answered within minutes — not routed through layers of systems.

We’re always available. Day or night, weekends or holidays, we’re here.

We create individualized care plans. Each journey is different. We listen first.

We’re locally rooted, locally run, and part of your community.

We make wishes come true. Through our Wishing Well program, we help patients experience joyful, meaningful moments.

"Words cannot express our family's gratitude for all of your support and guidance through Leon's hospice journey. The calls for help at all hours, the extra trips to Seward, and more — all so much appreciated. Know you mattered to us!"
