About the Good Samaritan Hospice Heritage Valley Beaver Unit
Good Samaritan Hospice Heritage Valley Beaver Unit is a faith-based hospice care provider dedicated to offering compassionate and comprehensive support to patients and their families during life's most challenging times. Located on the 4th floor at 1000 Dutch Ridge Rd in Beaver, PA, our facility is a sanctuary where patients receive top-notch comfort care when curative treatments are no longer effective.
Our Commitment:
We are committed to keeping our employees, patients, residents, and their families informed about the impact of COVID-19 on Concordia. We prioritize open communication and strive to be as accessible as possible, ensuring that all messages are returned promptly.
Our Approach:
At the heart of Good Samaritan Hospice care is a commitment to faith-based compassion. Whether patients are in their own homes, in a facility, or at one of our inpatient hospice locations in Wexford or Beaver, we treat them like family. Our hospice care, often referred to as "comfort care," focuses on pain control, symptom management, and providing emotional, social, and spiritual support.
Services Provided:
- Education: We educate patients and families about comfort care and symptom management.
- Advocacy: We assist with healthcare and insurance questions and forms, advocating for patients and families.
- Care Planning: We collaborate with physicians, nursing staff, and families to develop and implement personalized care plans.
- Support Visits: Our team visits regularly to support RNs and LPNs, provide personal care assistance, and help with light housework.
- Spiritual Support: We offer support to patients of all denominations and welcome care from the patient's own clergy.
- Volunteer Assistance: Specially-trained volunteers provide families with much-needed respite, helping with tasks such as visiting, praying, light cooking, and creating comfort blankets and memory quilts.
- Respite Stays: To alleviate caregiver stress, we offer short-term respite stays in our peaceful inpatient locations, in accordance with Medicare guidelines.
- Continuous Care: During crisis situations, we provide prolonged presence of a hospice nurse or aide in the patient’s home to manage difficult symptoms.
Bereavement Services:
Our Bereavement Service team supports grieving families with programs and services for up to 13 months after the loss of a loved one, ensuring that no one has to navigate their grief alone. Our Youth Bereavement Care program, founded in 2020, addresses the unique needs of grieving children with innovative approaches.
Volunteer Opportunities:
We welcome volunteers who wish to make a difference in patients' lives. Whether you have skills in gardening, music, cooking, or just a compassionate heart, there is a place for you at Good Samaritan Hospice. Volunteers must complete an application and training process, with flexible options for time commitment and service areas.

Reviews of Good Samaritan Hospice Heritage Valley Beaver Unit
"It takes a very special, caring, and compassionate person to do this job. The people at Good Samaritan were such a blessing during the most difficult time. They cared for my mother like she was their family. Thank you to all who work their. You are amazing!"
"Absolutely no communication. As in no phone calls after signing consents and moved my loved one out of the facility WITHOUT NOTIFYING THE POA. Edit: do you really now? Spoke with Administrator Saturday was promised an investigation and follow up call Monday, it’s now Friday and crickets. Edit: sent a letter to the CEO asking for answers. Got a form letter thanking me for my letter and saying you are always providing education. No explanation"
"We decided to move my Mom here and I can't say enough for all the nurses and the doctor to the entire staff. They cared for my Mom like she was their own parent. They are compassionate and caring and brought a lot of comfort. Thank you to all I called them my angels sent from heaven."
"Our mother recently declined rapidly while at a nursing facility for rehab and we requested for her to go to Good Samaritan. God was guiding our decisions during a very emotional time and we are so blessed He led her to this Hospice facility. Mom passed after only two days but the love, care and respect shown to her while she was there was more than we expected. Our family has nothing but praise for the staff at Good Samaritan! They allowed us to be with her to the end providing us with whatever we needed to help manage our grief!!"
"We brought my father here from another hospice service, and we could not have been more happy and pleased with how he was cared for. The care my father received here for his final days was EXCEPTIONAL. The facility is beautiful and calming, and does not have a clinical feel at all. The nurse to patient ratio was great, and my father had everything he needed. The nurses were above and beyond, from the way they spoke to him when he was no longer conscious, and to how clean he was up until the final day, and making sure he was comfortable at all times. "It is an honor." His one nurse Christine said to me when I said she had to have a heart of gold to do what she does. My only regret was that we didn't start with Good Samaritan from the get-go. There was absolutely no better way for my father to spend his last few days of life, and we couldn't have been happier considering the circumstances. The people that work there are living angels.❤️"
