About Us

A Home for Everyone

The Bird House, Hospice Home of Johnson County (HHJC), is nestled on a secluded wooded lot at 8 Lime Kiln Lane N.E., Iowa City, Iowa. Situated just north of Interstate 80, we are conveniently located ten minutes from the amenities that Iowa City, Coralville and North Liberty have to offer. 

We are the first and only independent residential hospice home in Iowa dedicated to compassionate end-of-life care.  Here the dying and their families and friends are empowered to live out their individual definition of quality living throughout the end-of-life journey and then claim a healthy grief process.

What you need to know

A patient can be referred to The Bird House by anyone, including their primary care physician, family, or facility staff. Our house manager might then visit the guest and their family wherever they are to explain the services of the home and gather any other information about the guest’s needs.

If all the rooms in the house are full, we have a waiting list. As soon as a room becomes available, we will contact the family.

Employees Volunteers Helping Working

The Bird House works with you and your loved one to create a cohesive end-of-life care plan. Our goal is to provide a home-like environment where your loved one feels safe and comfortable, experiencing their final days with peace and dignity surrounded by loved ones.
