Hospice Services
Hospice is care that focuses on improving your loved one’s quality of life. It does not aim to cure the patient, but rather make them as comfortable as possible at the end of life. At Star City Hospice, we address each patient’s physical, emotional, and spiritual needs through a range of services provided wherever your loved one calls home. Our hospice team includes nurses, physicians, health aides, social workers, dietary consulting professionals, and spiritual counselors.
Routine Home Care (Including Assisted Living)
Routine in-home care is offered on a regular basis up to 7 days per week to meet the medical, emotional, and spiritual needs of our patients. Scheduled and on-call visits take place wherever the patient calls home, whether that’s a house, assisted living facility, skilled nursing facility, or other residential location.
General Inpatient Care
General inpatient care is provided at a skilled nursing facility when the patient’s symptoms can’t be effectively managed at home. This service is meant to stabilize the patient’s condition so they can return to their house as soon as possible.
Respite Care
Respite care allows caregivers to rest or attend out-of-town events while your loved one is cared for at a hospice facility or other healthcare facility. Respite services are typically offered for up to five days at a time.
Continuous Care
When normal visits aren’t keeping the patient’s symptoms controlled, continuous care services can be provided on a short-term basis for up to 24 hours per day at the patient’s bedside.
Palliative Care
Palliative care can help relieve patients of physical pain, nausea, difficulty sleeping, depression, anxiety, fatigue, and more. We aim to improve the patient’s quality of life by easing symptoms of their condition through treatments like medicine, changes in diet, and therapy. At Star City Hospice, our palliative care therapy options include pet therapy, music therapy, and massage therapy, as well as meetings with spiritual counselors. Treatments are customized to your loved one’s preferences and needs.
Benefits of Hospice Care
Quality hospice care helps patients remain as comfortable as possible at the end of life. The services we provide help ease physical pain, avoid unnecessary hospitalizations, and support mental and emotional health. We also support caregivers by offering education and helpful resources. Hospice is usually covered by Medicare, so it can be less expensive than other end of life services. Contact Star City Hospice today.
