persons who can no longer benefit from curative treatment and need symptom management to improve quality of life. Hospice care includes:
Home visits by Hospice team members including nurses, aides, social workers, chaplains, and volunteers; medications, medical equipment and supplies; medical social services; spiritual care; continuous care during periods of crisis; 24 hour a day on-call assistance; emotional support and counseling; and physical
comfort through pain and symptom management. Jean Waddle Care Center
