Services Catered to Your Needs
Align Hospice cares for patients with an interdisciplinary team of nurses, a physician, home health aides, a social worker, and a spiritual counselor. We personalize your care plan to ensure comfort, dignity, and quality of life.
Hospice care is often brought to you at home, since home is where you want to be — in familiar surroundings with familiar routines and familiar faces.
Our multidisciplinary team focuses on developing a care plan specific to your individual clinical, social, and spiritual needs.
Four Types of Hospice Care
-
Routine Care
Most common level of care in hospice. Patient is generally stable and the patient's symptoms, like pain or nausea and vomiting, are adequately controlled.
Usually provided in the home.
-
General Inpatient Care
Crisis-like level of care for short-term management of out of control patient pain and/or symptoms
Usually provided outside the home, in an inpatient setting at a medical facility like a hospital or skilled nursing facility.
-
Continuous Home Care
Crisis-like level of care for short-term management of out of control patient pain and/or symptoms
Usually provided in the home.
-
Respite Care
A level of temporary care provided in nursing home, hospice inpatient facility, or hospital so that a family member or friend who's the patient's caregiver can take some time off.
This level of care is tied to caregiver needs, not patient symptoms.
