Spectrum News 1, Louisville/Lexington, KY; by Destinee Flowers; 7/16/25
Plans for Louisville’s first inpatient, standalone hospice care center are underway, as a part of Hosparus Health’s ongoing efforts to provide comfortable end-of-life care for seniors and their loved ones. ... Tawanda Owsley, Hosparus Health chief development and marketing officer [described], "We will have a 21-bed, 10,000-square-foot unit ... [and that] the new facility will replace a traditional hospital setting with a warmer one while still providing high-level clinical care. It will have private rooms to accommodate family members, bathrooms in each care room, a chapel, kitchen, children’s room and an outdoor garden area. “[Our] healing garden will be a pathway from our inpatient care center to our grief counseling center," she said. ... This end-of-life care center is the third project in Hosparus Health’s “Places of Compassion” initiative, an action to modernize hospice care in anticipation of the aging Baby Boomer population.
