The end of life should be as comfortable and peaceful as possible. We coordinate professional and compassionate hospice care for our residents in the comfort of their Elmcroft community. Coordinated hospice services provide care for the physical and emotional symptoms that can cause pain and distress.
What is Hospice Care?
Hospice care treats the person, rather than a condition, and focuses on quality of life so a person’s last days are comfortable. We coordinate around-the-clock hospice services, when needed, that takes a team approach to providing medical care, pain management, emotional support and spiritual care tailored to the wishes and needs of our residents. And our residents’ families also receive the respectful, compassionate care they need.
Comfort in Familiar Surroundings
When our residents are at the end of life, they often find comfort in staying in their familiar surroundings and with those who know them best. We coordinate hospice services so our residents receive the gentle and caring support they have grown accustomed to, along with the professional hospice care from outside providers that lessens pain and discomfort.
