Hospice care is a unique form of homecare that
emphasizes physical and emotional comfort and support services for both family
and patient. Choosing hospice does not mean giving up but rather shifting toward
a focus of aggressive palliation or comfort care. We believe it is all about how
you live, honoring choices and wishes. Hospice offers many benefits and
advantages. Hospice is an option you may choose if you wish to focus more on
being comfortable and less on active treatment therapies.
Our Hospice team is a group of supportive and
compassionate professionals who are dedicated experts in aggressive symptom
management, wise and sympathetic counseling and open, non-judgmental spiritual
guidance at the end of life when curative treatments are no longer effective.
The Hospice team provides guidance and
encouragement to the patient, family and their friends in order that they can
handle any situation or problem while caring for the patient at home. The
experienced interdisciplinary team, directed and supported by Dr. Rex Parsons,
Hospice Medical Director, is comprised of:
- Nurses
- Social Workers
- Chaplains
- Pharmacist
- Physical Therapists
- Speech Therapists
- Nutritional Experts
- Home Health Aides
