Home Service

Collaborating Goals

Prior to implementing home-based palliative care, we consult with the patient and family about their treatment aims. Discussions center on synchronizing treatment to patient priorities, upgrading quality of life, pain management, anxiety coaching, home safety, facilitation of medical equipment, spiritual counseling, and related education that enables important decision-making.

Home-Based

Palliative Care

Unlike hospice care, where the patient has a prognosis of 6 months or less, we present a home solution for any stage in injured or seriously ill patients as they undergo curative treatment per the extent of their conditions. Offering medical intervention to ease pain and symptoms, our team of visiting medical professionals facilitates upgraded comfort, care, and quality of life.
