About Hospice of Health First - Merritt Island

Hospice of Health First - Merritt Island is a nonprofit hospice serving the Merritt Island community in Brevard County.

The hospice team works collaboratively to provide personalized care in the comfort of the patient's home, emphasizing dignity and support for both patients and their loved ones. This office is part of a larger organization, Health First, which is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for those they serve.
