A lot of families in Taos start with the name they heard at Holy Cross Medical Center. That name is a fine first call. You can still talk with anyone on this list. Taos Pueblo is beside the town, and it is not the same address as a street in town. Most hospice care is at home. Ask whether the team will come to the town or to the pueblo, and who answers at night. Santa Fe is a long drive. A Santa Fe team may not come to Taos.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hospices in Taos
Do we have to use the hospice a hospital names in Taos?
No. A hospital or physician can share names they work with often. You may still compare any Medicare-certified hospice that will come to the patient’s address. Calling for information does not enroll you.
Should we contact more than one hospice about Taos?
Yes. Compare who covers the exact address, how soon a nurse can get there, and who answers after hours. A referral is a starting point, not a requirement to use one brand.
Can hospice care be provided at home in Taos?
Yes. Most hospice care happens where the patient already lives — a house or apartment, or assisted living, memory care, or a nursing facility. Ask the team to confirm that specific address, not only the city or county name.
How quickly can hospice start in Taos?
When hospice is medically appropriate, many teams begin within about 24–48 hours, and some can start the same day when staffing allows. Ask who comes first and how a night call is handled. Then verify by phone.
Is the town of Taos the same as Taos Pueblo?
No. Taos Pueblo is beside the town. Give the address you mean.
Do we have to use the hospice the hospital named?
No. Holy Cross can suggest a team. You can call anyone who will come to the house.
