Hospice in the Home
National surveys have shown that the vast majority of Americans wish to remain at home in their last year, surrounded by familiar sights and sounds. Beacon Hospice helps patients remain at home and supports the family in caregiving. By empowering patients to make informed decisions about their care, we help patients get "back in the driver's seat" and guide them along the road they choose.
Caring for an ill loved one can be physically and emotionally demanding. To help during this challenging time, Beacon Hospice offers families a reprieve from caregiving and extra support when emotional and physical resources are running low.
We also provide all of our patients with 24-hour-a-day, seven-day-a-week phone support so no matter the time, there is always a trained medical professional available to advise, support, or even visit if needed.
Hospice in the Hospital
Some of our patients require hospital services as part of their care plan. For these patients, Beacon Hospice provides a hospital team that coordinates patient care in the hospital setting. Our specially trained team offers professional support and consulting to the medical staff and nurses and provides a central point of contact for all information regarding the patient's care.
Hospice in Facilities/ Long Term Care & Assisted Living
For nursing home or assisted living facility residents, Beacon Hospice can help manage symptoms and control pain through care programs specially designed to complement services already in place. We also help train and support facility staff. Patients receive the advantage of two health care organizations committed to helping patients and families facing end-of-life challenges.
