Mission and programs · 2025

• Hospice of Southern Maine's (HSM) Mission is to provide compassion, care, and comfort through end-of-life for patients with life-limiting illnesses and support for their families. Our stated vision is as follows: "As a leading provider of Hospice and Palliative Care in Southern Maine, our focus is quality and excellence in patient and family centered care. Striving to be the hospice provider of choice for patients and families, and the hospice employer of choice for healthcare professionals, we endeavor to positively shift societal attitudes concerning death and dying, grief and loss."To meet our Mission, HSM offers comprehensive hospice care to patients in York and Cumberland Counties by an interdisciplinary team of physicians, nurses, hospice aides, social workers, chaplains, grief counselors, and volunteers. Our patients have life-limiting illnesses with a prognosis of six months or less. In addition to providing medical, emotional, social and spiritual support to our patients, we also provide care before and after the death for their loved ones. Our core vision includes a focus on shifting societal attitudes concerning death and dying. To fulfill this vision, HSM organizes an annual regional conference on end-of-life topics; provides education to clinical staff in area hospitals; nursing homes; assisted living facilities; colleges and universities; businesses; churches; and the community. Our bereavement program, which is an important part of our mission, offers support for 13 months following the death of a loved one. Our program is unique in that it offers one-on-one counseling at no cost. We also offer eight-week group sessions for people who are interested in connecting with others in a similar situation. Additionally, we provide counseling and group support to anyone in the community who is grieving, whether or not their loved one died while under our care.Formed through a collaborative effort among York and Cumberland County community leaders and health care providers, HSM began providing direct patient services in 2004. In 2007, HSM opened the area's first inpatient hospice facility - the Gosnell Memorial Hospice House. Today, HSM is the only free-standing, state licensed, Medicare-certified nonprofit in Maine that is solely focused on providing professional and volunteer direct hospice services to dying patients and their families, regardless of their ability to pay. Demand for our services continues to grow; HSM provides hospice care to 2,100 patients and their families. We employ approximately 157 staff and engage approximately 138 direct care volunteers and 11 admin/event volunteers. Our highly skilled, multidisciplinary team includes physicians, nurses, social workers, home health aides, chaplains, occupational and physical therapists and grief counselors. This team works together to provide direct patient care in alignment with our mission to provide compassion, care and comfort through the end of life.

  Expenses $17,560,999 · Revenue $22,161,921

As filed on the 2025 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2025

As listed in Part VII of the 2025 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.
