Anti-Discrimination

Discrimination Is Against The Law

Emmanuel Hospice complies with applicable Federal civil rights laws and does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, disability, or sex (consistent with the scope of sex discrimination described at 45 CFR § 92.101(a)(2)).  Emmanuel Hospice does not exclude people or treat them differently because of race, color, national origin, age, disability, or sex.

Emmanuel Hospice:

  • Provides free aids and services to people with disabilities to communicate effectively with us, such as:

    • Written information in other formats (large print, audio, accessible electronic formats, other formats)
  • Provides free language services to people whose primary language is not English, such as:
    • Qualified interpreters
