A thorough home health evaluation is the first step in providing safe and effective care at home. Conducted by a licensed nursing practitioner, this assessment examines the suitability of the home environment, the patient’s psychological comfort, and available resources to ensure seamless treatment. By understanding the patient’s needs and surroundings, we can design a care plan that maximizes safety, comfort, and overall well-being.
Home hospice care allows patients to receive compassionate medical support in a familiar, comforting environment, surrounded by loved ones. We recognize that both physical health and emotional well-being are equally important. Being in the comfort of home, rather than an unfamiliar facility, can greatly enhance a patient’s quality of life during this sensitive time.
Our hospice approach focuses not only on the patient but also on their family. Loved ones often need psychological and emotional support, and our team ensures that everyone feels comforted and cared for. With experienced nurses and physicians, some with over 25 years of expertise, our team provides 24/7 medical attention, emotional support, and peace of mind, knowing that your loved one is safe and well cared for.
When choosing a hospice program, a checklist can help you make an informed decision. Consider factors that are important to you and note items that may not apply. Use this checklist when speaking with hospice staff to ensure all your questions are answered, and make notes about the services offered, staff qualifications, and the overall approach to patient and family support. Making a copy for each program you consider can help you compare options and choose the right fit for your loved one.
