Hospice Care
Entrusting your loved one’s care to someone is not easy, but you can trust our specially trained nurses, social workers, spiritual care providers, CNA’s, volunteers, physicians, and nurse practitioners to ensure the highest quality of home, hospital, or facility based hospice care available. Hospice care is provided for someone with a terminal illness to enhance the quality of their lives for as long as possible. The team of professionals address the physical, psychological, and spiritual needs of the dying person and those that love and care for them
Bereavement Services
Our social workers provide bereavement services. This word refers to loss and encompasses the period after death. During this time grief is experienced and mourning occurs. The origins of this work come from the phrase “to rob,” and appropriately captures how we often feel after loss. Other common feelings include feeling outraged, betrayed, shocked, and deprived when a death or major loss occurs.
Veteran Services
We are veteran owned, and patriotic to the core. We know that veteran’s have their own specific health care needs and strive to meet them where they are. We work closely with the VA, and participating in the NHPCO’s We Honor Veteran’s Program is a priority.
Palliative Services
Our palliative care services are patient and family centered. The goal is to decrease symptom burden that often accompanies chronic and acute illness. We can also help with addressing goals of care while you continue to seek curative and other life prolonging treatments. Unlike a doctors office, we will bring palliative care to where the patient resides. Our care is intended to decrease suffering and promote quality of life.
