Services for patients and families through Rush Hospice Partners Through an interdisciplinary team that includes nurses, social workers, home health aides, chaplains, physicians and trained volunteers, Rush Hospice Partners provides a complete range of hospice services to people with life-limiting illnesses and their families. Our team members are on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Most patients choose to receive hospice care in their own home or the home of family or friends.
The Rush Hospice Partners team travels to the home to provide care. Other people may reside or choose to receive care in a long-term care or residential facility with which we have a contract. In the event of a complex case, or if death is imminent upon referral, patients and families may receive hospice services and support in one of our contracted hospitals. While our primary office is in Oak Park, Rush Hospice Partners team members live and work throughout the Chicago area. In addition, Rush Hospice Partners sponsors education programs for the community and for health care professionals.
