home visits
No matter where the patient one calls home: personal residence, nursing facility, board and care, or assisted living, our hospice
staff will visit several times each week.
A nurse will check on the patient's condition, answer questions, and recommend changes in medication, diet, equipment, or supplies; the nurse will then report to the patient’s physician to discuss possible changes and obtain doctor’s orders.
A Hospice Aide may come to deliver personal care. A social worker can provide personal support, or perhaps information about helpful community resources. A Spiritual Care Provider might offer non-sectarian spiritual support. A specially trained volunteer can provide companionship to the patient or a much-needed break of a few hours for the family.
When needed the Hospice Physician, who is an expert in symptom management, may make a bedside visit to the home. The care and support of the entire hospice team is available to each hospice patient, but the patient and family are ultimately in control of accepting the services that they feel are most beneficial to them.
