Home About Volunteer Contact Us Careers Grief and Loss Donate (316) 265-9441 Harry Hynes Memorial Hospice has expanded our care and availability to our patients, families, and community partners through the option of Telehealth. Telehealth refers to the practice of caring for patients remotely when the healthcare provider and patient are not physically present with each other. Modern technology has enabled your healthcare team to consult with you by using HIPAA compliant video-conferencing tools. These include computers and phones with video capability. During the time of COVID-19 we remain committed to provide Hospice Services wherever you, your loved one, residents, or patients call home, while also remaining vigilant in protecting an already vulnerable population. Use of Telehealth allows for a more efficient response to patient symptoms, needs, and caregiver questions in an environment free from increased exposure risks, making visits more comfortable and less anxiety inducing. The technology utilized ensures continued compliance to protection of patient privacy and adherence to HIPPA regulations.
