Purpose
Agrace was founded in 1978 by volunteers who believed in the revolutionary idea that comfort, dignity, and even hope, are possible for those facing a life-limiting illness.
Today Agrace is a hospice and palliative care agency dedicated to providing exceptional care and support to local patients and families facing the challenges of any stage of serious illness:
Hospice Care – home-based and inpatient care for those whose life expectancy is less than six months
Memory Care Suites – residential care for hospice patients suffering from cognitive decline
Age at Home – non-medical home care for seniors
Adult Day Center – Madison-based services providing daily programming for seniors
Supportive Care – consultative, community-based palliative care services
For more than 45 years, Agrace has been an innovator and leader in both caring for patients and their families, and in educating others about death, dying and grief. We are the largest hospice provider in Wisconsin.
