PruittHealth Hospice & Palliative Care provides tailored services to support patients and their families, delivered in-home or at a skilled nursing, assisted, or independent living location - wherever the patient calls home.
HOSPICE CARE
Our family-focused approach to end-of-life care helps patients live their final days well cared for, comfortable, and surrounded by their loved ones. Typically, hospice care serves individuals who have decided to stop pursuing treatments that could cure or control their condition and who have a life expectancy of six months or less.
With a team that includes nurses, social workers, certified nursing assistants, chaplains, and volunteers, PruittHealth delivers individualized hospice care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in the setting of the patient's choice.
Hospice care does not hasten or postpone death. Instead, it prioritizes caring for the person, rather than the disease, with a focus on quality of life. Hospice is not a place; it is a specialized service approach to end-of-life-care. Our hospice care is always family-centered, involving the patient and family in the decision-making process.
PALLIATIVE CARE - Coming soon to this office
Palliative care is specialized medical care for people living with a serious illness. Focused on providing relief from the symptoms and stress of the illness, the goal is to improve quality of life for both the patient and the family.
Palliative care is provided by an interdisciplinary, specially trained team of doctors, nurse practitioners, nurses, social workers, and chaplains who work together with the patient's other doctors, therapists, and specialists to provide an extra layer of support.
Palliative care is based on the needs of the patient, not on the patient's prognosis. It is appropriate at any age and at any stage in a serious illness, and it can be provided along with curative treatment.
All patients are admitted and treated without regard to race, color, creed, age, handicap, national origin, or payment classification. We strive to meet any special cultural or psychosocial requirements. For admission, we will need:
