Palliative Care Resources

Community Resources

Palliative Care is an in-home medical resource for anyone living with a serious illness, seeking to improve their quality of life through improved symptom management, and understanding the choices for treatment. The services available through palliative care may be helpful to anyone experiencing discomfort and disability late in life. Palliative Care can be provided along with curative treatment and home health, and does not depend on the likely outcome of a disease process.

Our services include:

  • On-Call Hospice Support – 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
  • Pain Management – Treatments to help with pain and discomfort
  • Symptom Management – Treatments to aid with anxiety, breathing, nausea and other symptoms
  • Medication Coordination – Allows proper medication to be available when needed
  • Registered Hospice Nurses Visits – Scheduled to meet your individualized hospice nursing care plan
  • Nurse Aide Visits – Scheduled to aid with personal care: bathing, feeding, dressing and other duties
  • Hospice Team Visits – Hospice counseling, program implementation, insurance coverage, support and follow-up visits
  • Volunteer Visits – Scheduled for companionship, errands and light duties
  • Bereavement Services – 13-month bereavement services post-death to all family members and loved ones

Benefits of Palliative Care

  • Patients may maintain treatment that might cure a serious illness
  • Palliative Care may transition to a higher level of care if the doctor and Palliative Team believes ongoing treatment is no longer helping.
  • Palliative visits by a Nurse Practitioner happen wherever you call home. No need to drive to an appointment.
  • Patients may continue receiving Home Health and Palliative Care at the same time.
  • A Nurse Practitioner will support your care during transitions or when you are unable to go to a regular physician.
