A state-of-the-art end-of-life center that welcomes the community to care, learn, and provide whole-person hospice care.
Recognizing that Missoula’s absence of a hospice house is unusual for a city of our size, a group of Missoulians came together to build a facility for our community. The Partners Hope Foundation wants to provide a peaceful environment for end-of-life hospice care for both patients and their families.
The building mass draws from the iconic ‘house’ form, creating an inclusive and welcoming environment. Thoughtful, framed views from interior spaces to surrounding gardens provide privacy and separation of care rooms from community and family gathering spaces.
Loci developed a project vision, building program, initial cost estimates, needs analysis, and developed marketing images for a capital campaign. Facility design is currently underway with anticipated construction commencement for Summer 2023.
