When you or a loved one is diagnosed with a serious or advanced illness, every moment is precious. Figuring out next steps or where to start in making the most of that time can be overwhelming. We are here to help.
Hospice Care
Caring for Your Family Like You're Part of Ours
At Care Dimensions, we help those living with life-limiting illnesses make the most out of their lives. Our approach combines advanced medical support, including specialized pain and symptom management, with compassionate and gentle care that brings comfort and peace.
Our focus on both our patients’ emotional and medical needs is why we have been the region’s hospice care leader for over four decades. We understand the complexities of facing an advanced illness, and the difficulties this can bring for patients and those caring for them. Our integrated team-based approach provides families with medical assistance and caring support, easing the strain of stress and worry, wherever they may be located.

Our Inpatient Hospice Houses in Danvers & Lincoln, MA
When circumstances make it hard for those under hospice care to be treated at home, Care Dimensions provides two in-patient hospice homes as an alternative to hospitalization.
Palliative Care
Relieving Pain, Symptoms and Stress
People who struggle with pain and symptoms related to a serious illness but who are not ready or don't qualify for hospice care often benefit from palliative care. At Care Dimensions, our palliative care specialists partner with the patient's doctors to offer additional support to improve their quality of life at whatever point they may be in the course of their illness, whether it is at the diagnosis stage or during treatment.
Our aim is to enhance the lives of those impacted by illness, empowering them with knowledge and helping them understand what to expect as the illness progresses. We give our patients and their caregivers the knowledge they need to maintain comfort and independence, improving everyday life.
Care at Any Age and Stage

- Cancer (any stage)
