Our Levels of Care
Hospice care is compassionate care for people facing a life-limiting illness or injury.
Hospice care involves a team-oriented approach to expert medical care, pain management, and emotional and spiritual support tailored to
your needs.
Our four levels of hospice care include:
- Routine Care: Patients receive hospice services in the setting they call home.
- Crisis Care: Patients receive care on a short-term continuous basis in order to monitor and manage uncontrolled symptoms.
- General Inpatient-Care: Patients receive care on a short-term basis in an inpatient facility to help relieve uncontrolled symptoms.
- Respite Care: Patients receive care in a facility on a short-term basis, up to five days, to provide relief for the caregiver.
