Our introduction generally begins with a home, facility, or hospital visit to assess the situation. We will then focus on:
Specialty Consults are usually covered by medical insurance.
Hosparus Health’s hospice care program is for people who are facing terminal illness and have a life expectancy of six months or less. Hospice services are not curative but, rather, provide relief of pain and other symptoms associated with the patient’s terminal illness and related conditions. It’s a medical benefit completely covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and all private insurance plans.
Pallitus Health Partners, a part of Hosparus Health, offers palliative care (or advanced illness care). Unlike hospice care, palliative care does not require a terminal diagnosis. It is intended to optimize your quality of life and it can help you match your goals to your treatment choices. Palliative care services are delivered wherever you call home and for as long as necessary.
For anyone suffering a loss or even an anticipated loss, we offer counseling in private, group, or family sessions.
A critical but often overlooked component of care for families and friends is spiritual support. These services are offered to meet your spiritual needs and wishes, and go hand-in-hand with palliative and hospice care. Emotional and spiritual support is always available to the person’s family and loved ones.
A primary goal of our care is to ensure the comfort of our patients and to assist with medication and symptom management of their illness. During each visit, we will check the patient’s pain level and adjust accordingly.
Treating complex illnesses requires complex medication management. With the guidance of the patient’s existing doctors and specialists, we ensure that they’re getting the right doses of medication and that their pain is managed effectively.
Our commitment to patients and their families doesn’t take time off. That’s why we provide around-the-clock phone support for everyone. This service is offered at no added cost.
We have one of the largest teams in the country of doctors and nurse practitioners who are board-certified in hospice and palliative medicine. Patients in our care can continue to have their care directed in tandem with their doctors and our expert team.
Our team of volunteers is specially trained to support patients and their families during treatment and care. Volunteers can help with things such as caregiver relief, running simple errands, and perhaps most important, companionship and emotional support.
