Services

Methodist Hospice offers care for adults as well as children. Services include:

  • Giving compassionate care to terminally ill persons by helping control pain and other symptoms.  Our team works together to develop each patient's personal care plan.
  • Supporting the patient and family emotionally and spiritually through support groups and counseling even after Hospice care ends.
  • On call nursing support 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. The nurse can answer questions, provide support and send an emergency visit nurse to the home if needed.
  • Counseling and spiritual support from chaplains and social workers.
  • Physical, speech and occupational therapy as part of the Hospice care plan.
  • Admission to the hospital for help with acute symptoms that require a short hospital stay.
  • Volunteers who can help run errands, sit with the patient for short periods, provide companionship and at times, provide transportation.
