At the heart of our approach is the belief that care always matters. Because we treat your family like our own, we design every plan around your loved one’s unique needs and priorities to ensure comfort, dignity, and peace of mind.
Our personalized hospice care plans include:
- Physical Comfort Measures: This involves specialized Pain Management and symptom control overseen by our Medical Director and nursing team to ensure the patient is as pain-free as possible.
- Daily Living Assistance: Our hospice aides provide hands-on Hospice Aide Support for vital tasks such as bathing, dressing, grooming, and mobility, helping to preserve the patient’s dignity.
- Skilled Nursing Care: Regular visits from our nursing team to monitor health and coordinate all aspects of medical care.
- Emotional and Social Support: Dedicated social workers provide guidance for both patients and families, addressing the complex feelings that arise during this journey.
- Spiritual Support: Chaplains are available to help explore beliefs, find meaning, and honor personal traditions.
- Alternative and Complementary Therapies: We offer unique ways to find comfort, including Cherish Touch (massage), Cherish Sounds (sound therapy), Aromatherapy, and Pet Therapy.
- 24/7 Dedicated Response Team: We provide around-the-clock hands-on care, including weekends and holidays, so urgent needs are never met with a delay.
- Volunteer Services: Our volunteers offer companionship and help create lasting legacies through memory books and family photos.
- Bereavement and Grief Counseling: Support for your family continues for at least one year after a loss to help navigate the healing process.
For those who served, we also incorporate Veteran-focused Services into the plan to honor their military history and connect families with earned benefits.
