What is Hospice

What is Hospice:

When curing a serious illness is no longer possibile, many people choose to stop curative treatment and accept palliative care. Palliative care means emphasis is placed on comfort and control of symptoms. It is not intended to prolong life.

Hospice Care is provided primarily in the home, nursing home, or in an assisted living facility. The Hospice Team assists family members in caring for their loved one in the comfortable and familiar surroundings of their own home whenever possible. Occasionally, short inpatient stays may become necessary for symptom management or during a medical crisis. Trinity Hospice is contracted with local skilled nursing facilites to provide that special care when needed.

Trinity Hospice not only focuses on the special needs of the patient, but also provides support to the families. with our team of medical professionals, Trinity Hospice strives to meet the physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs of both the family and the patient.

Trinity Hospice recognizes that everyone is a unique individual. With the expert guidance and counseling of our Hospice Team, patients and families can make their own decisions about what is important to them. Trinity Hospice respects the decisions of the family and helps to create an atmosphere of understanding and acceptance
