Our physicians lead our hospice care team as we monitor our clients' health. These professionals can prescribe medications so our clients can live a life free of pain. They also monitor the changes in our clients' condition so they can create timely changes in our clients' care plans.
Our skilled nurses can supervise our home health aides and, if needed, delegate certain responsibilities that they are trained to provide. They coordinate with our physicians and record vital signs and health changes through medical equipment management. They are also our physician's partners in ensuring that prescriptions and other health activities are followed in caring for the clients.
Having well-balanced meals is important for individuals in hospice care. For us, it is also important that the taste of our clients' meals and snacks does not suffer in ensuring the nutritional content of their food. Thus, with the help of our dieticians, we create meal plans that cater to taste and health.
Our home health aides are well-trained and experienced in providing the support that individuals under hospice care need. Under the supervision of our skilled nurses, they are also capable of providing basic health services.
It can be difficult for individuals under hospice care and their families to come to terms with their situation. For clients who are religious, they may find the strength that they need with the guidance of our spiritual counselors.
Hospice care volunteers are compassionate individuals who are willing to support individuals under hospice care. The assistance that they can provide ranges from companionship to personal services, based on their skills and experience.
