It was a small oasis of support for those on the road. At Upper Peninsula Home Health and Upper Peninsula Hospice , the original sense of a caring community continues in our hospice philosophy in our commitment to your family. Hospice care means support, control, dignity and peace of mind for the entire family.
Family members play an active role in determining care.
The support for the family continues after death with bereavement services and our memorial service, honoring those whose lives we ve been privileged to share. If you already receive home health services, ask your nurse or therapist. They can discuss your personal needs and help you identify the right time to choose hospice care. Ask your family doctor. A hospice referral is appropriate in many different situations, and for many different illnesses, including cancer, heart disease, chronic lung disease, or progressive neurological disorders.
