NPHI members work to fundamentally change how people and institutions think about the last stages of life through its mission to “lead the movement of hospice, palliative, and advanced illness care through innovation and collaboration.”
“Our Board is comprised of innovative leaders who help guide and shape the future of hospice care through the work of our members.

Much like HopeWest, these like-minded leaders and not-for-profit providers across the United States are driven by passion and integrity. As part of this organization, HopeWest is committed to providing person and family-centered end-of-life care based on needs, not profit
“I look forward to serving on this board and not only representing HopeWest, but also not-for-profit hospices across the nation.” said Christy Whitney, HopeWest President and CEO. “I value NPHI and the dedication and determination their members have to continually improve patient and family experiences at the end-of-life.”
