Focused on pain management and symptom control, the care is based in the home, enabling families to remain together.
Hospice care is a cost-effective alternative to services provided in hospitals or other institutional settings.
Home hospice care:
- Family member acts as the primary caregiver.
- Hospice team members make regular visits to asses the patient and provide services.
- Home Health Aides may be assigned to assist with bathing and other personal care needs.
- Hospice staff is available 24 hours a day 7 days a week to provide support.
