| Laguna Honda Hospice: Zen Hospice Project helped to create the unique hospice program located within the institutional setting of Laguna Honda Hospital -- the largest public long-term care facility in the United States. ZHP manages the volunteer component of a 25-bed open-ward hospice unit. The program offers cost-effective and comprehensive care to an estimated 150 residents, their families and their loved ones annually. For information, or to make a referral, please contact the Admitting Office at 415-759-2327. |
| San Francisco Zen Center was established in 1962 by the late Shunryu Suzuki-roshi, author of Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind among others. SFZC is dedicated to continuing Suzuki-roshi's style of practice, which flows from the insight that all beings are Buddha, and that the practice of sitting in meditation is itself the realization of buddha nature, or enlightenment. Zen Hospice was started as a "project" of SFZC in 1987. |
| We also work in partnership with Sutter Visiting Nurses Association Hospice (VNA) and other licensed hospices in the Bay Area. |
