About Us

Providing quality care since 1987, ANCORA Compassionate Care is a community-based, mission-focused hospice and palliative care provider - and the only full-service provider based in Rockingham County.

The majority of patients that we care for live in Rockingham County but ANCORA Compassionate Care also serves patients in Caswell, Guilford, and Stokes counties.  With several hundred years' collective experience in the hospice field, our staff is extremely knowledgeable and skilled in providing end-of-life care.

Memory Garden Pavers:  

Our pavers offer a unique and lasting way to honor and /or memorialize a friend or loved one by way of engraved brick pavers.  Our Memory Garden consists of areas covered with brick pavers to compliment our landscaping.  These 4″x8″ pavers may be inscribed with up to three (3) lines of text; each line can contain no more than 18 letters and spaces. The brick pavers may be purchased for $125/each; special symbols, such as a heart, are an additional charge of $10.00 each.

If you would like to print out a form, with worksheet included to help you in designing your paver, please click here.
