Providing the “Gold Standard” in Comfort Care

Services

 

Hospice of the Calumet Area, Inc.

Hospice care is a family-centered approach that includes a team of doctors, nurses, social workers, counselors, and trained volunteers.  They work together focusing on the patient’s needs; physical, psychological, and spiritual.  The goal is to help keep the patient as pain-free as possible, with loved ones nearby until death. 

The hospice team develops a care plan that meets each patient’s needs for comfort and to maximize the quality of life.

Hospice Services include:

· Regular visits by nurses and home health aides.

· Emotional and spiritual counseling available for patient and family.

· Respite services for relief and support of caregivers.

· The coordination of supplies, medications and medical equipment.

· The pursuit of available reimbursement sources.

· Grief support.
