Inside the hospice that feels like home: How Omega House catches those who fall through the cracks

Retired teacher Eleanor Munger opened Omega House in 1986 in Montrose, pioneering care for dying HIV/AIDs patients. ... Sonny and Neil, and perhaps the laughter they bring, are all part of the key ingredients that make up Omega House, a mainstay in Montrose complete with a living room and garden that you might not immediately realize is a hospice. ... But making it feel like home means it's functioning just as founder Eleanor Munger intended it. "She was a retired Montessori school teacher, so she had no medical background whatsoever. She was 74 years old, and she just felt like this was something that people need - a really loving, caring environment," said Omega House director Sandy Stacy.
