A hospice inpatient unit is a medical facility where around-the-clock care is provided by hospice nurses, CNAs, social workers, and chaplains under the direction of the hospice medical director. The setting is more home-like than a hospital and shorter term than a nursing home. In our in-patient units, we provide acute care in a comfortable, calming setting similar to that you would receive at your home or a nursing home.
In many instances, hospice in-patient units are for those who need help managing acute, complex medical conditions that cannot easily be treated comfortably in their homes.
Respite care is a service that provides temporary, short-term relief for primary caregivers. Caregiving can be highly demanding, as well as stressful and draining. It can also lead to burnout and potentially reduce the quality of care being given to the caregiver’s patient.
Respite care usually takes place in one of our in-patient care units, but can also take place in a facility. It lasts for five days to allow caregivers to recover from the demands of their responsibilities, and to resume them feeling refreshed and recuperated. You are welcome to visit your loved one during their stay, but we encourage you to allow us to provide care so that you may rest.
Our staff members will take over all your caregiving duties for the length of time you need in which to recover as a caregiver. We will assist your loved one with bathing, dressing, and eating, and we provide medication management services that help them adhere to their treatment plans. We will also engage your loved one in any special activities taking place in the in-patient unit during their stay (volunteer companionship, pet therapy, and music therapy).
Hospice Home Care is dedicated to providing you and your family with caring and compassionate support and addressing your loved one’s physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. We want all our patients to feel as comfortable as possible and live with dignity as they cope with and manage their illnesses.
Our professional staff members are experienced and compassionate individuals who work hard to deliver thoughtful and respectful care that emphasizes living as fully and comfortably as possible.
