Our mission is to provide the highest quality of care, comfort, dignity, peace and individuality to our patients and their families, 24/7.
When you or a loved one is diagnosed with a terminally ill condition, it is stressful and frightening. Comfort Hospice Care provides a set of services that comes to you, whether you're in your home, assisted living, long-term care facility, or skilled nursing facility.
Our diverse team of health care professionals work together with patients and families to provide pain and symptoms management, medical, emotional and spiritual support. Our team is made up of Hospice Physician(s), Pharmacists, Registered Nurses, Certified Nursing Aides (CNA's), Medical Social Workers, Chaplains/Clergy, and trained Volunteers. This team, known as the IDT (Inter-Disciplinary Team), works together under the supervision of your physician to design and implement a specific plan for the patient and their family's special needs. Our focus is palliative care, primarily in the areas of pain and symptom management. Our staff is highly-trained in palliative care and works very closely with your physician to provide the best and most accessible care to you and your loved ones. We have medical doctors, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants, as well as:
Nurse – Each patient and family is assigned a Nurse/Case Manager who will coordinate the delivery of care. They will be there as often as necessary as an extension of your physician, to monitor and manage pain and symptoms. Nurses also instruct caregivers in skills needed care for their loved one, such as routine dressing changes, administering medication, providing comfort care, and so forth. They will also educate the family on what to expect and how to help.
Certified Nursing Aide (CNA) – Are nursing assistants who provide personal care to the patient. They make regular visits to assist patients with activities of daily living such as bathing, shaving, shampooing, and the changing of patient's bed linens if needed. Aides work closely with nurses and other hospice team members.
Medical Social Worker – Can serve as liaison to other community resources that may be helpful to patients and families -- with specific help on family relationships, the stress of the illness, financial or legal issues and more.
Chaplain – For those who request spiritual assistance and support. Can be provided either directly by a staff Hospice Chaplain or by coordinating with other community clergy.
Specially Trained Volunteer – As a companion, someone to talk with, someone to listen and a friend to lean on.
The mission of Comfort Hospice Care is to provide the highest quality of care, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We seek to provide unified care, not only to the patient, but to the entire family as well. We strive to provide and enhance comfort.
