In the patient's home, it provides comfort through pain control and symptom management while offering emotional, social and spiritual support for the patient and family, individually and as a unit. For most families, when the option of a curative treatment is no longer beneficial, the following weeks or months can be overwhelming for many reasons. With Good Samaritan Hospice in-home hospice care, you and your loved ones don't have to face it alone. Even more reassuring is the fact that your loved one can stay as comfortable as possible in their home, skilled nursing facility, personal care/assisted living complex, or other residence. At Good Samaritan Hospice, family members are an equally important part of the caregiving process. Our goal is to support you, emotionally and physically, so that your health is not also compromised. Our entire care team will visit the patient and family in his/her home setting as needed. Most patients and their families choose to receive care from several team members, including: Community Educators Provide education to the patient and family regarding comfort care and symptom management. Social Workers Assist with healthcare/insurance questions and forms, and are advocates for the patient and family. RN Case Managers Work with physicians, nursing and care team, and family to develop and implement plan of care. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Visits as needed to support the RN's role in the patient's care. Home Health Aides Visit regularly to provide personal care assistance, support RNs and LPNs, and help with light housework. Pastoral Care Team Provides support to patients of all denominations, and welcomes care provided by the patient's own clergy. Physical and Occupational Therapists Available as needed for patient care and comfort. Volunteers Specially-trained volunteers are here to give the family some much needed rest. They help with things like visiting and praying with your loved one, light cooking, playing music or creating comfort blankets and memory quilts. Volunteers are always needed - if you have a heart for this ministry, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator here or call our office. For those patients on Medicare, we can often arrange for your loved one to stay a few days in one of our hospice inpatient facilities, which also gives you a reprieve from the stress of caregiving.
