It was founded to follow each patients lead and to be a trusted companion through lifes most difficult transitions. That promise is the foundation of Avows mission statement: We create peace of mind by providing compassionate care and support to those who need us.
Over 35 years of caring, Avow has expanded the range of services it offers to those in need. It has enriched the care provided to hospice patients with no-cost complementary therapies such as music therapy, massage therapy, Reiki, and art therapy, and began offering non-hospice palliative care to those with chronic illnesses. Avow has also expanded grief and bereavement support programs to both children and adults, with group and individual sessions open to all, without cost.
In 2018, Avow celebrates 35 years of serving Collier County, and humbly thanks the community for its compassion and support over the years.
