3HC (Home Health and Hospice Care, Inc) is a private, non-profit home health and hospice agency in eastern North Carolina. Established in 1981 as Mount Olive Home Health, 3HC has grown from a single office, single county provider to a 23-county provider with nine offices and two in-patient hospice facilities, Kitty Askins Hospice Center in Goldsboro, NC and SECU Crystal Coast Hospice House in Newport, NC. Over the last four decades, care at 3HC has grown from serving patients in Wayne County, with a staff of two, to serving patients from the Triangle to the coast, with a staff of almost 500.
3HC is a community-oriented organization with a mission to provide the right care, at the right place, at the right time throughout life’s journey. Care is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. 3HC is accredited by CHAP (Community Health Accreditation Program), a designation shared by only the best providers, in addition to being Medicare and Medicaid certified.
At 3HC, we care for the patient, their family, our staff, and our communities through the family-centered programs and services we offer. There are a variety of programs & services that charitable donations support and enhance. These include:
Bereavement Experience Program- grief support to families, for 13 months following their loss, including care calls, home visits, loss and grief education, and support groups.
Butterfly Wings Program- fulfillment of a final wish for 3HC hospice patients, both children and adults
Charity Care- offsets care provided to the under or uninsured to ensure no one is turned away due to the inability to pay
Complimentary Therapies- comfort measures that reduce anxiety for patients, when combined with quality care, including music therapy, art therapy, and pet therapy.
Kitty Askins Hospice Center (link)- known for its serene, comfortable, home-like atmosphere through routine maintenance, remodeling, and renovations needed to maintain its ambiance.
Pediatric Hospice Program- carefully planned, compassionate hospice care for children (birth to teens) and perinatal services to parents of a terminal unborn child, tending to cost more than adult hospice due to its complexity, but reimbursement is the same
Specialty Grief Programs- target specific groups and circumstances, reaching beyond losses within hospice, such as the opioid epidemic, suicide, natural disasters, etc.
Veterans Hospice Program- recognition & appreciation efforts for veteran patients for their service & sacrifice, as well as specialized training for staff focused on the unique end of life needs of veterans & their families
Wings Camp for Grieving Children- a free weekend camp for children, ages 8-16, who have suffered the loss of a loved one. The camp is NOT limited to those served by 3HC. Any child with a grieving heart is welcome.
