RALEIGH, N.C. — A new inpatient hospice facility for Hospice of Wake County has received a $250,000 pledge from State Employees' Credit Union.

With plans to begin construction before the end of the year, the proposed facility consists of three buildings: a 19,000-square-foot Hospice House, a 26,000-square-foot community and administrative building and a 1,000-square-foot spiritual sanctuary. The Hospice House will have 14 acute-care beds, six residential beds and a space dedicated for families, including a kitchen, family room and playroom for children.

The community center will also feature a bereavement center and will provide space for community education programs, for children to take part in play and art therapy sessions and for adults to participate in counseling programs.
