Services include pain management, grief counseling and home health services such as bathing, laundry and companionship.
Hospices also offer respite services to allow family members to get away for a short period of time.
While these services may be provided in a hospital or nursing facility, most are made available to the patient in their present home environment. Medicare and Medicaid will pay for Hospice services. If the individual goes to a nursing home or hospital based hospice, they will be responsible for paying room and board charges. W 11th Street Rd.
