Home Health and Hospice

Every individual deserves to spend his or her remaining days in peace and with dignity. It’s that belief that underlies hospice care from Good Samaritan. We provide services to individuals with life-limiting illnesses whose physicians have certified that their likely life expectancy is six months or less. In other words, patients and their families have chosen to shift the focus from cure to care and comfort.

Hospice care can be provided at home, in a skilled nursing facility or in the hospital. Our program emphasizes quality of life and provides physical comfort. We also support the emotional, social and spiritual needs of the patient, family and caregivers involved.

Hospice is intended to support and supplement caregivers in the home. Hospice also provides education, support and skilled care to ensure that our patients are able to live out their remaining days as fully and peacefully as possible.
