Hospice accompanies many people on their end-of-life journey, so we work in partnership with our local hospice service providers to continue excellence in care. For this reason, Marker Funeral Homes collaborates with hospice services to host community events, provide education about our services, and recognize excellent care provided by companies with our annual Hospice and Palliative Care appreciation campaign. Working together provides a seamless continuum of care that puts families first.

Hospice Services FAQ
What do hospice providers do?
Hospice service providers help ease the end-of-life journey for people with critical illnesses, such as end-stage cancer, organ failure, and more. Making the patient and their family comfortable is a priority. Alongside the patient and family, they attend to physical, mental, spiritual, and social concerns as part of the care team to facilitate death with dignity. See the links above to learn more about Tulsa area hospice providers and to Oklahoma palliative care, as well.
Who needs hospice services and when?
More than half of Oklahoma Medicare patients will use hospice services. Choosing when to engage with hospice services is a decision made after a physician determines that the individual has a life expectancy of six months or less. Most individuals are in hospice care for a month or two, but this varies. Learn more about hospice care through the Oklahoma Health Care Authority.
What is the relationship between Tulsa Metro hospice providers and Marker Funeral Homes?
We collaborate with several hospice care providers to provide compassionate service and to educate and inform our community. One way we do this is through our hospice appreciation campaign each November during National Hospice and Palliative Care Month. Feel free to reach out to Marker Funeral Homes to learn more about area hospice services.
