All are welcome
at our table
Emerald Wings is a women-owned hospice serving families across the Twin Cities metro. We show up in person, we keep our caseloads small, and we care for the people in front of us the way we’d want our own families cared for.
Women owned, women run
Local decisions, No investors. No board
In-person care that makes a difference
24/7 in-person triage response
Low nursing case loads. More time for you
WHY EMERALD, NOT A FRANCHISE
The difference families feel.
The people making the calls are the people who know your community, show up in person, and care for families like their own.
Women, owned, women run.
Founded and led by women who answer to the families they serve, not to shareholders.

In-person clinical care.
Real visits from our medical directors and nurses, plus a certified death doula at the bedside.
Low nursing caseloads.

24/7 in-person triage.
Days, nights, weekends. When you call, a real person comes.

SPECIALTY SUPPORT
Wings Programs
Care that goes beyond the standard. Our specialty programs meet people where they are, with support built for specific needs and moments.
Certified death doula
A trained companion who stays close to patients and families in the final days, bringing presence, ritual, and calm to a moment most people face without a guide.
Veterans Salute
Recognition and tailored end-of-life support for those who served, honoring their story and their service.
Legacy & final wishes
Help with life review, letters to loved ones, and making a final wish real. Pairs with the Emerald Fund.
WAYS TO GIVE
The Emerald Fund
No family should go without comfort or a final wish for lack of means. The Emerald Fund helps cover the things that turn someone’s last days into theirs, big and small. Your gift stays local and goes straight to the families we serve.
A LIVING MEMORIAL
Colors of Life
Every person we care for leaves a color behind. With each life, we add a grain of colored sand to the Emerald vase, a growing reminder that no one who passes through our care is forgotten.
In every life
a unique color
