Cooper Green Hospital



The Balm of Gilead Center is a comprehensive program for persons with terminal illnesses who do not have a place to live or who do not have enough support at home to provide needed care services. Persons with all forms of terminal illnesses from cancer to AIDS are eligible for this program.

The Balm of Gilead Center is planned to open in the Summer of 1998 on the fourth floor of Cooper Green Hospital. The Jefferson County Department of Health and the Care Team Network are partners in this unique program. The primary goal of the Gilead Center is to improve the overall quality of patient and family care, including pain management and spiritual guidance.

More information on the Balm of Gilead Center will be posted on JeffCo InTouch in the near future. For specific questions, please call 930-3600.
