About Concordia Hospice of Washington The roots of our organization can be traced back to Rev. Dr. J. E.

In 1996, the program was combined with The Washington Hospital, opening opportunities for inpatient care and other new services. On July 1, 2016, Concordia Community Support Services and Washington Health System (previously The Washington Hospital) partnered to form the organization we are today.
