What is Hospice Care?

Hospice care is an affirmation of life that focuses on comfort, pain-free care when a loved one is faced with a terminal illness. Meet the Embrace Hospice team and see what services are available to you and your family.

Here to Support You

Hospice is comfort care intended to give those with terminal diagnosis’ the best possible quality of life. The goal is to promote a life free of pain and discomfort for the patient, as well as support their loved ones.

By utilizing an integrated interdisciplinary team approach, hospice provides a whole team, for the whole person, for the whole family. Hospice care may be provided at patient’s home, a family member’s home, in a skilled facility, an assisted living, board and care, or the local hospital.

What is Home Health?

At Embrace Home Health, we understand that each patient has unique needs. We also understand there is no “one-size-fits-all” solution when it comes to healthcare. Home Care is a great option for those who need extra assistance, but do not need to be in a hospital or other care facility.

A Team You Can Trust

Our team-oriented approach to hospice care includes medical, social, emotional and spiritual support to guide you and your family through this difficult time. An experienced care team will tailor and deliver a individually-focused care plan to meet your needs and preferences.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does homebound status mean?

The goal of Home Care is to serve patients who have an illness or health concern that makes it difficult for them to leave their home, it is important to determine each individual’s Homebound Status.

To be homebound means:

Because of an illness or injury, you have problems leaving your house without assistance (such as using a cane, wheelchair, walker, or crutches; special transportation; or support from another person); or leaving your home isn't advised given your condition.

You rarely leave your house, and even when you do, it requires a great deal of effort.

Who is eligible for home health care?

Most often, patients use Home Care services when they are recovering from a surgery or managing a chronic illness. Most plans follow the Medicare guidelines when considering coverage. The Medicare guidelines include the following criteria:

The services must be ordered by a physician.
There must be a skilled need. Skilled nursing or therapy services (such as physical, occupational, and/or speech) are needed on an intermittent basis.
A patient must be homebound. The patient’s ability to leave their home requires abnormally taxing effort. This is considered the ‘Homebound Status’, and it needs to be confirmed and certified by the patient’s doctor.

If you have:

Medicare or Medicaid Insurance – Click the link to view more detailed requirements: The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services guide, “Medicare and Home Health Care (PDF).”

Private Insurance – Contact your insurance company to determine Home Care eligibility.

Of course, we are always available to speak with you about your options. Please feel free to contact us.

How does hospice work to keep the patient comfortable?

Many hospice patients have pain and other symptoms as their illness progresses. Embrace Hospice provides special training for staff so they are equipped to assist with these symptoms. Hospice staff works with the patient’s physician to ensure medication, therapies, and procedures are designed to achieve the goals outlined in the patient’s plan of care. As the patient’s condition and goals of care change, the plan of care is updated according to the patient’s needs and wishes.

Feedback

Here is what some of our families are saying about our services.

"Words cannot express the feeling in our hearts. Thank you for being with us during this difficult time. Your care, thoughts, prayers, and words of sympathy will always be remembered."

"Thank you for the wonderful service you provided my sister. Also, thank you for helping me cope with my sister's illness and death. Our nurse was an angel sent to my sister and I."

"I had no idea about the wonderful care provided by hospice. I wish we had known sooner about the care provided by your team. I will always remember the people who care for my father. I also thank you for your support and care provided by the chaplains who prayed with us near the end."

(The Embrace Hospice) nursing staff is top notch. They took such great care of my grandmother over the years and were very informative and supportive, especially during the last few days.

The company truly cares about all their staff "team", and everyone I have met or worked with has a big heart for their patients and families. There are also great benefits available if you choose to take them, which is very rare to find in the health care field outside of hospitals. Management also takes the time to listen to any concerns you may have and tries their best to find the best solutions for any situation. I also never feel burned out, and if I did, I know my managers would help me out.

"I cannot speak well enough about Embrace Hospice. When it became evident that my mother was in need of hospice care we were a little overwhelmed at the options. After speaking with several people in the assisted living business who had learned to trust Embrace was something they all agreed was top notch. Their advise was spot on. The care that Embrace personnel provided both medically and spiritually during her last 8 weeks was superb. When my mother passed they were a great help taking care of the details. If your loved one is in need of hospice care I wholeheartedly recommend Embrace Hospice."
