For the last 40 years we've worked to ensure that everyone in our community can live with advanced illness as comfortably, confidently and as fully as possible. In the last five years, we provided more than $1 million in uncompensated hospice care to patients without the ability to pay for service.
Words can never come close to thanking you for the care, kindness, help and love you showed to mom and myself. You are truly angles from above.
-Kathy Coatsworth
The friendships I've established with Hospice of Northern Colorado caregivers are invaluable. The care I receive is beyond compare - it relives the stress for my wife and family.
-Larry Estep
A huge Thank You from the bottom of my heart. I could not have given my husband the love and care that he needed without you!

TRU Hospice of Northern Colorado's mission is to honor and dignify life's final journey, console the grieving and educate the community. Our vision is to be the provider of choice and to set the standard of excellence for end of life care in Weld and Larimer Counties.
Originally founded by community leaders and volunteers in 1978, we were identified as Hospice of Weld County. During our inaugural year we served 18 hospice patients. The focus and vision of the hospice industry at that time was a grass roots movement to create community based programs to promote end of life care for patients with terminal illness.
At inception, the identified mission was to provide quality end of life care, console the grieving while educating the community of Weld County. Since that time, Hospice of Weld County recognized that services were needed in surrounding counties in the northern region of Colorado. In 2000, the name of the agency was changed to Hospice and Palliative Care of Northern Colorado in order to reflect the growing need of end of life care and present the palliative concept beyond the Weld county parameter.
In 1995 Hospice and Palliative Care of Northern Colorado opened our hospital based in-patient hospice unit (the In Patient Care Center) at North Colorado Medical Center in Greeley, Colorado. Our administrative offices moved into our current location at 2726 West 11th Street Road in Greeley in June, 1997. Since the later part of the 90's, we have expanded to serve patients in Larimer Counties.
