YOUR CARE TEAM

meet your hospice care team

Each piece of the puzzle fits into place — working in harmony to care not only for the patient, but for the people who love them.

Spiritual Care Coordinator

We honor all beliefs, backgrounds, and philosophies. Spiritual care is about meaning, connection, and peace — not doctrine. Our spiritual care coordinators provide presence, not persuasion. They assist with:

• Life reflection and conversation
• Prayer, meditation, and memorial planning
• Crisis and spiritual support
• Reconnecting with faith, traditions, or community

Pharmacists

Behind the scenes, our hospice pharmacists ensure every medication serves the patient’s comfort — safely and effectively. They assist with:

• Medication review and adjustments
• Avoiding harmful drug interactions
• Educating families on safe use
• Streamlining prescriptions for ease and clarity

Hospice Nurses

Our nurses are often the steady heartbeat of care — blending clinical skill with deep compassion. They assist with:

• Pain and symptom management
• Safety assessments and education
• 24/7 medical support and guidance
• Aligning care with patient goals and family input

Volunteers

Sometimes, healing comes through presence. Hospice volunteers offer heartfelt connection through conversation, laughter, and simple kindness. They assist with:

• Visiting patients and loved ones
• Providing respite for family caregivers
• Helping with small tasks or meals
• Supporting grief groups and remembrance

Integrative Therapies

Comfort looks different for everyone. Whether it’s a therapy dog, a soothing melody, or a warm massage, our integrative therapies support the whole person. They assist with:

• Easing anxiety and discomfort
• Bringing joy through pet therapy, massage therapy or musical support
• Promoting calm, connection, and peace

Social Workers

When decisions feel heavy, our social workers offer guidance. They’re here to help ease emotional burdens and connect families to the support they need. They assist with:

• Care planning and emotional support
• Grief counseling and education
• Funeral planning and community services
• Leading support groups and navigating complex conversations

Therapists – PT, OT, SLP

Our physical, occupational, and speech therapists help patients maintain comfort, movement, and independence — however possible. They assist with:

• Gentle movement and breathing techniques
• Communication and swallowing support
• Conserving energy for daily comfort
• Home modifications for safety

Hospice Aides

With quiet strength and tenderness, our aides bring dignity to the everyday — from a gentle bath to a kind word, their presence comforts and reassures. They assist with:

• Personal hygiene and grooming
• Light household tasks and meals
• Noticing and reporting changes in condition
• Providing companionship and routine comfort

Physicians – Hospice & Attending

Our physicians oversee the full scope of care — working with other team members, patients, and families to meet medical needs with clarity and compassion. They assist with:

• Developing and guiding personalized care plans
• Managing pain and symptoms
• Supporting families through complex decisions
• Leading care coordination with clinical oversight

Family Friends & Community

The most powerful support often comes from those who know the patient best. Loved ones are caregivers, advocates, companions — and an essential part of the care team. We work closely with them to ensure care honors the patient’s values, comforts, and wishes. They provide:

• Emotional support and advocacy
• Help coordinating visits and care
• Insight into preferences and needs

Care begins by listening.

The patient

Every care plan begins by listening. The patient’s wishes shape how we care — guiding our decisions, setting goals, and defining what dignity truly means to them. Hospice isn’t about what’s done to someone. It’s about what’s done for them — and with them.
