Learn moreIs Hospice Right for Your Loved One?
Many families tell us they wish they had called hospice sooner. If your loved one is facing a life-limiting illness, these signs may mean it’s time for a conversation:
- Frequent hospitalizations or ER visits in recent months
- Increasing pain, breathlessness, or other symptoms that are hard to control
- Noticeable weight loss, weakness, or sleeping much more than usual
- Needing more help with bathing, dressing, eating, or moving around
- A doctor has mentioned that the focus should shift to comfort
You don’t need to be sure. Our free consultation includes an eligibility review, and we coordinate directly with your physician.
Four Levels of Hospice Care
Hospice isn’t one thing, it’s a set of care levels that flex with your loved one’s needs. Our team recommends the right level and adjusts as things change.
Routine Home Care
The most common level of hospice. Your loved one stays comfortably at home while our nurses, aides, social workers, and chaplains visit on a regular schedule, managing symptoms and supporting the family.
- Scheduled nursing and aide visits at home
- 24/7 phone access to our on-call nurse
- Medications and equipment coordinated for you
Continuous Home Care
During a medical crisis, such as uncontrolled pain, severe anxiety, or acute symptoms, a nurse can stay at the bedside for extended hours until your loved one is stable and comfortable again.
- Intensive bedside nursing during symptom crises
- Rapid response, day or night
- Seamless return to routine care once stable
Inpatient Respite Care
Caring for someone you love around the clock is exhausting. Respite care provides a short inpatient stay for your loved one, up to five days, so family caregivers can rest, travel, or simply recharge.
- Short-term inpatient stay in a contracted facility
- Full hospice care continues without interruption
- Peace of mind for tired caregivers
General Inpatient Care
When symptoms can’t be managed at home, your loved one can receive intensive, round-the-clock care in an inpatient setting until comfortable, then return home if they wish.
- 24-hour skilled nursing in an inpatient setting
- For symptoms that need intensive management
- Family can visit and stay close throughout
