Serving the Continuum of Life

Cabrinian health care maintains a consistent dedication to excellence and the dignity of the person, spanning the continuum of life from birth to death. Cabrini Healing institutions include a hospice, a home care program, hospitals, nursing and adult care facilities, as well as home-based care programs for the poor.

We are committed to:

  • Serving all those in need with a holistic approach
  • Partnering where necessary to promote wellness, restore health and relieve human suffering
  • Providing services in urban areas, making our clinics accessible to local people in need, and reaching out to the community with our resources and time
  • Alleviating the isolation often felt by people in their final stages of life by emphasizing socialization in an environment that honors the person

In New York, and throughout the country, Cabrini Hospice care is renowned for helping patients with advanced illness live their days with meaning, dignity and comfort.

Home Care: Most Hospice patients live in the comfort of their own homes, surrounded by the people and the things they cherish most.
Cabrini physician specialists and registered nurses visit patients regularly to help with pain management and symptom control. Clinical social workers offer supportive counseling for both patient and family. Music and art therapists help patients and their loved ones find self-expression and relaxation.

Inpatient Care: Cabrini has a 45-bed inpatient unit for hospice patients who need short term acute care. The home-like atmosphere of the inpatient facility helps the patient and their loved ones feel welcome and comfortable. Visitors—including children of any age, as well as pets—can visit 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The primary caregiver may stay overnight in the patient's room and share meals at no cost.

Cabrini Ministries
P.O. Box Mhlatuze
Swaziland, Southern Africa

The Missionary Sisters have been serving at St. Philip's Mission in the lowveld region of Swaziland since 1971.  Today, they continue to serve at the mission running the healthcare services, the outreaches and boarding hostels, as well as teaching in the school and providing skills training.  In recent years, efforts have been made to respond to the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Swaziland by expanding their services to include:

Cabrini Hostel - established to care for the high rate of children orphaned by AIDS.  Many of the children are compromised by malnutrition and chronic conditions such as TB and kidney disease.

Agriculture - in 2005, Cabrini Ministries established an agricultural project.  This project provides water for food and helps to create a sustainable income for approximately 200 people, in addition to serving the children at the hostel.

Home Based Care - Started with a grant from the Bristol-Myers-Squibb Foundation, the Home Based Care program focuses on caring for the sick and dying; testing for HIV; helping people begin treatment and transporting people to the hospital to receive treatment.

Education - The educational program began over fifteen years ago when it was discovered that many children in the homesteads were not in school and their families could not afford to send them.  With the assistance of the Swiss Solon Foundation, once the children are on the foundation grant, their education is guaranteed through 7th grade if they pass.  This increases their chances for individualized growth and better employment opportunities.
