When a patient is dealing with a progressive illness, it is possible, at some point, that a cure is unreachable, or the patient may no longer wish to pursue aggressive treatment. That is when hospice care becomes a primary option. Hospice care focuses on the comfort and quality of life of a progressively ill person as they approach the end of life.

Hospice care provides comprehensive and empathetic comfort to patients and their families at home. Professional hospice caregivers are specially trained to relieve anxiety as the symptoms become more serious.

Ascend Hospice Care as a Medicare-certified hospice provider, can offer four different levels of care, depending on the patient and the caregiver’s specific needs, such as:

With a hospice care service, you are not alone in caring for your loved one. Help is always a phone call away to assist you with physical, spiritual, or emotional support for the patient, as well as bereavement support for the family.

We are fully committed to providing the proper level of care at the right time. Everyone matters all the way to the last moments of their life. Hospice is designed to honor a patient’s wish to remain home in a comfortable environment.
