Right Time, Right Team, Right Care
For nearly 30 years, our Suburban Hospice team (formerly Hancock Regional Hospice) has provided compassionate and expert care for hospice patients and families in Greenfield, IN and surrounding areas. When curative treatment is no longer an option, hospice provides patients and families with the multifaceted support they need to make the most of their time together. Our expert RNs, HHAs, social workers, and chaplains care for the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual needs of patients and families throughout the last weeks and months of life.
Earlier this year, our hospice was recognized by Strategic Healthcare Programs as a โPremier Performer,โ achieving a survey score from families we served in 2018 that puts our program in the top 5% of hospices in the nation. โOur familiesโ responses resulted in our program beingโฆthe only hospice in Indiana to achieve that rating. We worked hard this year to be sure our families were receiving the right amount of emotional and spiritual support and also as much training in how to care for their loved ones as they wanted. We talked more about the side effects of medication and about what to do when our patient seemed uncomfortable and how to recognize that. Those efforts clearly meant something to our families because the scores in those areas were even better than the year beforeโ, said Jeannie Crowe, Executive Director of the hospice program. โThis award helps us know that the care we provide to our patients and our families makes this very difficult time just a little bit easier and that means everything to us!โ
On October 1, 2019, we officially became Suburban Hospice and have expanded our service area to include Riverview Health in Noblesville and Witham Health Services in Lebanon. We look forward to continuing our great tradition of compassionate, expert, and personalized care throughout Central Indiana.
