“Pth honors life and offers comfort with dignity to people of any age living with a progressive life-limiting illness. It educates and supports its volunteers and staff to maintain a high standard of care, and responds to care-giver, family and community needs for continued bereavement support.”

“Providing indirect and direct non-medical care for clients and families which can take place in the home, hospital or nursing home. Providing on call service for patients and their families needing support at the mayo regional hospital. Providing response to traumatic community events. Providing bereavement support for children, adults and families. Pine tree hospice receives no state or federal funding, and no payments from insurance companies. In maine, state regulations dictate that a volunteer hospice program is defined as a hospice program that provides all direct patient care at no charge. As such a volunteer hospice and bereavement program we are not allowed to be a fee for service organization. Our financial viability is dependent solely upon the generosity received from grants, fundraising, strong collaborative support and donations of foundations. Pine tree hospice, as a volunteer hospice, provides all its direct care through the service of 130 + volunteers. As most agency programmatic costs consist primarily of wages and benefits, pine tree hospice will have an inordinately lower percentage of programmatic costs than is typical. This can portray a misleading high percent of g&a but in actuality pine tree hospice has only 3 part-time and 1 full-time employee to oversee the delivery of its mission. Our biggest asset is not reflected in dollars and cents, it is measured in the hours found in the 130-person volunteer base that we have built.”
