Contact Us Today

Routine Home Care

Routine home care is the most common type of palliative care. This type of care is provided to patients who are living at home or in a long-term care facility. Our team will manage your loved one’s symptoms, provide emotional and spiritual support, and offer education and resources to your family. Our routine home care team includes doctors, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and other specialists as needed. We meet our patients’ needs through scheduled and on-call visits up to 7 days a week.

General Inpatient Care

While we always strive to keep our patients at home, sometimes general inpatient care is necessary. General inpatient care is provided in a skilled nursing facility for patients who require more intensive short-term care to treat their condition. General inpatient care may be necessary if your loved one is experiencing severe symptoms that cannot be managed at home, like pain, nausea, or difficulty breathing. During this time, our palliative care team will work closely with your healthcare providers to manage symptoms and provide support.

Respite Care

Respite care is a level of hospice care that gives a patient’s primary caregiver a break from their caregiving duties. The patient is temporarily placed in a hospice facility, hospital, or long-term care facility, where they will receive 24-hour care and support. We usually provide respite care for up to five days at a time. Our teams can provide respite care on a periodic or as-needed basis to give caregivers a chance to rest and recharge.

Continuous Hospice Care

Continuous hospice care is provided when a patient is experiencing severe symptoms that require 24/7 care. Our team will provide care in the patient’s home for a minimum of eight hours per day to manage your loved one’s symptoms and provide support for your family. We typically provide continuous hospice care for a limited period of time until the patient’s symptoms are under control and can be managed with routine home care. Continuous care may also be used during a period of crisis or when the patient is nearing the end of their life.

The Star City Hospice Difference

A Dedicated Hospice Team

A Dedicated Hospice Team

Star City has one of the lowest patient-to-staff ratios in the hospice industry. With a larger team, we’re able to provide more visits and better bedside care for our patients and their families. Our team of physicians, nurses, aides, and other hospice professionals work hard to keep our patients at home—not in the ER or the hospital. We provide frequent visits that are focused on quality time and effective communication with you and your family. Our goal is to keep our patients wherever they call home, whether they need routine home care or continuous hospice care.

Local to Texas

Star City is locally owned and operated in Texas. We’re proud to be a part of this community, and many of our staff members grew up here. Our team strives to provide the best support possible for our fellow Texans in Fort Worth. Being locally owned allows us to make faster decisions and quickly respond to our patients’ concerns. As a local hospice care provider, we’ve also formed relationships with other healthcare facilities and medical professionals in the Fort Worth, TX area. Our partnerships with these other organizations helps us give our patients the best care and end-of-life hospice services possible.
