What is Hospice Care?

Hospice care improves comfort and quality of life for patients with a terminal diagnosis. Hospice care is a benefit covered by Medicare/Medicaid and most private insurance. It is provided wherever patients call home.

The Hospice Care We Provide Includes:

  • A Personalized care plan to meet each patient’s individual needs and wishes.

  • Physician, Nursing and Aide care wherever the patient calls home.

  • Pain and symptom management for improved quality of life.

  • Coverage for medication, supplies and equipment related to the terminal diagnosis. Expert specialized care provided by trained staff through our specialty care programs.

  • Spiritual, social and emotional support for both patients and their loved ones.

  • Advanced Care Planning and additional resources.

  • Vigil and bereavement support.

We’re here to answer your questions.

Who Is Hospice For?

Hospice is for anyone with a life expectancy of six months or less, but can continue as long as a patient is eligible.

While we care for patients with many different diagnoses, common medical conditions we see include heart failure, Alzheimer’s Disease and dementia-related disorders, and cancer, among others.

Benefits of Hospice Care

The benefits are greatest when hospice is provided early, surrounding patients, families and caregivers with a team of compassionate experts. We focus on medical needs, family support and improving quality of life, so that you can focus on what matters most to you. Learn More About Patient Services.
