In-home support
HOSPICE IS NOT A PLACE, IT'S A CONCEPT OF CARE
We help patients make the most of their time remaining.
The Hospice Team consists of a Physician, Nurse, Hospice Aide, Social Worker, Spiritual Counselor, Volunteer and Bereavement Manager. In addition, we also have therapists and after-hours triage staff.
Interdisciplinary Team (IDT)
A team manages a patients pain and discomfort as well offers support for the family around the emotional, social, and spiritual aspects of death and dying.
Equipment Delivered To Your Home
Necessary equipment such as wheelchairs, oxygen and hospital beds are covered by the hospice benefit and most private insurance and are delivered to your home.
Care is Typically Covered By Insurance
The Medicare Hospice Benefit covers services related to the terminal diagnosis up to 100% by Medicare Part A. We provide the same high quality of care to everyone.
Medications Delivered To Your Home
Medications and supplies related to your terminal diagnosis are covered by the hospice benefit and delivered to your home. The patient and/or standard insurance may pay for unrelated medications.
Respite Care
Respite Care allows a family caregiver to get a break of up to five consecutive days and nights from caregiving duties while the patient is cared for in a Medicare-certified inpatient facility.
Short Term Inpatient Levels of Care
Acute symptom management related to the primary diagnosis in inpatient hospice homes is covered. Once under control, hospice will make plans for the patient to return home.
