Hospice Family Care is certified by Medicare to care for people facing any end-stage disease or terminal illness. Patients and families dealing with End-Stage Heart or Lung Disease, Diabetes, Cancer, and many other illnesses can benefit. Our team addresses physical and practical needs, emotional and spiritual needs, and all quality of life issues. Pain and other symptoms are treated with priority.
Hospice care is available to anyone, of any age, or any financial status, and is a Medicare benefit. Many seniors are not aware they already have this coverage or how to take advantage of this special care. As part of this benefit, Medicare covers a variety of services, carried out by our special hospice team, and pays necessary additional benefits such as related prescriptions and disposable supplies, all at 100%
Volunteers are always needed! Our volunteers are very special people from all walks of life who are sensitive to the needs of our patients and families and who support our philosophy of supportive care. Our volunteers are individuals who respect and revere life and, in the performance of their volunteering, bring their energy and support to our patients, family members, and our care team. Volunteers attend a comprehensive 30-hour orientation encompassing various aspects of patient and family needs, and the volunteer role in the hospice team.
Any person sixteen years of age or older who has successfully completed our free orientation program can volunteer with us.
Our next training will be in May. There is an initial interview and you are then signed up for the next class.
