Saint Francis Hospice of Vinita
We walk alongside patients and families in Vinita and the surrounding communities, offering professional comfort care and unwavering support during life's most tender chapter.
About Us
Saint Francis Hospice of Vinita was founded on a simple conviction: that the final chapter of life should be met with dignity, comfort, and genuine human warmth. We are not a large institution — we are a close-knit team of nurses, aides, social workers, and volunteers who believe every patient deserves to be known, not just treated.
Our team serves patients and families throughout Vinita and the surrounding communities in northeast Oklahoma, providing professional comfort care in the home and other residential settings. We work in partnership with physicians, families, and community resources to ensure that every need — physical, emotional, and spiritual — is addressed with the utmost care.

Our Approach
We believe that true comfort goes beyond physical symptoms. Our interdisciplinary team addresses the emotional, social, and spiritual dimensions of care, recognizing that each patient is a person with a unique story, relationships, and values.
From the moment we begin serving a family, we work together to create a personalized care plan — one that respects the patient's wishes, supports the family, and adapts as needs change. We are here for the quiet moments and the difficult ones alike.
We begin with a thorough evaluation to understand the patient's medical needs, personal preferences, and family dynamics.
Together with the family and physician, we develop a care plan centered on comfort, dignity, and the patient's goals.
Our team provides continuous monitoring, adjustments, and emotional support — available to you around the clock.
