A Beacon of Compassion and Quality Care: Haven Home Health and Hospice’s Journey in Southwest Missouri

In the heart of the Ozarks, a healthcare provider has stood as a pillar of compassion, quality, and local pride for over a decade. Haven Home Health and Hospice, the last locally owned and clinician-owned home health agency in Southwest Missouri. They have been offering unparalleled home care, home health, and hospice services to patients in their homes for over 13 years. Founded by John Ray, Haven was born out of a desire to challenge the status quo of the healthcare industry, dominated by large corporations whose often profit-driven motives overshadow the essential focus on patient care.

 

The Haven Difference: Local, Clinician-Owned, Patient-Centered Care

John Ray’s founding vision for Haven was clear: to provide a healthcare service where care always comes first, ensuring patients receive the support they need in the comfort of their own homes, without the impersonal touch of corporate bureaucracy. This vision has set Haven apart in today’s healthcare landscape, emphasizing the significance of maintaining a locally owned and clinician-driven approach. At Haven, decisions are made with the patient’s best interest at heart, a rare find in an industry increasingly dominated by profit margins.

 

Our Comprehensive Services

Haven offers a broad spectrum of services designed to meet the varied needs of patients at home. From personalized assistance with daily living activities under home care to professional medical support including nursing and therapy in home health care, Haven’s offerings are comprehensive. Hospice care, another critical service, is delivered with compassion and dignity, focusing on the comfort of patients in their final days. Haven’s holistic approach extends beyond physical care, incorporating emotional and spiritual support to ensure the well-being of patients and their families.

 

Our Team: Heart and Soul of Haven

The strength of Haven lies in its people. A dedicated team of professionals, from doctors and nurses to therapists and social workers, embody the mission and values that John Ray envisioned. Each team member is carefully selected and trained, not just for their professional expertise but for their compassionate approach to care. This interdisciplinary team collaborates closely, crafting personalized care plans that address the unique needs of each patient, ensuring the highest standards of care and support.
