About This Cause
Advent House is a hospice-care home located at 1010 Moseley Road in Fairport, NY, which provides for the physical and emotional needs of the dying in a loving, homelike setting. We affirm the dying person's dignity, encouraging them to participate in determining what would most enhance the quality of life. We embrace the family and friends of the resident with love and support that continues through the grieving process. Staff and volunteers, in conjunction with a certified home health agency and the resident's physician, provide individualized holistic care. Advent House is a two-bed home for the dying who have been medically determined to be in the last three months of their lives. Admission is based solely on need regardless of religion, age, sex, race or the ability to pay. There are no fees. Preference is given to those who can no longer be cared for in their own home. Trained hands-on care volunteers assist with bedside care, property maintenance, clerical responsibilities, public relations and fundraising. We are supported by memorials, donations, United Way, grants, special fundraising events and the community at large.
