SERVICES

Our home hospice agency, also known as a hospice care agency, is an organization that provides specialized end-of-life care and support to individuals who are facing a terminal illness. Our hospice care aims to enhance the quality of life for patients and their families during the final stages of an incurable illness by focusing on pain and symptom management, emotional support, and ensuring a peaceful and comfortable environment. Our team of healthcare professionals delivers a comprehensive range of services to meet the needs of our patients and their families.

Our hospice agency offers a comprehensive range of services delivered by a team of healthcare professionals, including:

1. Medical care: Skilled healthcare professionals, such as doctors and nurses, provide medical care to manage pain and symptoms, administer medications, and address the physical needs of the patient.
2. Emotional and psychosocial support: Trained counselors, social workers, or chaplains offer emotional support and counseling to patients and their families, addressing their psychological, spiritual, and social needs.
3. Palliative care: Hospice care focuses on providing comfort and relieving pain, rather than attempting to cure the underlying illness. Palliative care techniques are used to manage symptoms and promote the highest possible quality of life for the patient.
4. Personal care: Home health aides or caregivers assist with personal hygiene, bathing, grooming, and other daily activities to maintain the patient’s comfort and dignity.
5. Respite care: Short-term care services are available to give temporary relief to family caregivers, allowing them to rest or a[end to personal needs while their loved one is cared for by hospice professionals.
6. Bereavement support: Hospice agencies often provide bereavement support to families and loved ones after the patient’s passing, offering counseling and resources to help them cope with grief and loss.
7. Medical equipment and supplies: Hospice agencies help arrange and provide necessary medical equipment, such as hospital beds, wheelchairs, oxygen supplies, or other assistive devices, to ensure the patient’s comfort and safety at home.
8. Care coordination: The hospice team collaborates with the patient’s primary care physician and other healthcare providers to ensure consistent and coordinated care.
   
   

Our Hospice Agency has interdisciplinary teams of professionals who work together to address the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of the patient and their families. We provide care and support within the patient’s own home, enabling them to spend their final days in a familiar and comfortable environment, surrounded by loved ones.

It’s worth noting that as a hospice care agency, we are focused on providing comfort rather than curative treatment. We typically provide hospice care to individuals with a prognosis of six months or less to live, as determined by a physician. The goal is to maximize the patient’s quality of life while providing support to their family members throughout the end-of-life journey.
