Helping Patients

The goal of hospice services is to provide compassionate and complete care to patients when they need it the most. Individuals who have reached this point in their care have unique needs. Transitioning through this period can be extremely difficult for the patient and their family members. Our staff members understand those challenges and have special training, allowing them to provide the level of care needed during this trying time.

Services

Hospice specialists provide 24/7 nursing care. We offer social services and supportive counseling to help with end-of-life planning. The patient’s personal physician is included in the planning to ensure the patient receives everything he or she needs. Spiritual counseling and bereavement support also are offered. Preferred Care at Hamilton works directly with hospice companies in the area that are known to have the best reputation and most reliable services. The ultimate goal is to make each patient’s final days as comfortable and rewarding as possible, while at the same time offering support and acknowledgment to his or her family members.

Reimbursement

Consultations are available by phone or in a private office to make things convenient for everyone involved.
