Scottsdale Hospice Care

The Philosophy of Scottsdale Hospice Care is Dynamic and Comforting

When a loved one is battling a fatal disease or is nearing the end of their lives, it is incredibly difficult to both grieve and assist them with their end-of-life needs. Families and friends are faced with a huge amount of difficult decisions, including where their sick loved one should spend the last days of their life while still receiving the proper medical care to possibly recover or pass away without pain and suffering.

What is hospice care?

Hospice is a niche type of care for people fighting life-limiting illnesses, their friends and family, and their family caregivers. A hospice often offers services that treat the patient’s illness, assist with diminishing or relieving symptoms and pain, and addresses the emotional and spiritual needs of an ill person. Hospice care is usually a financially and overall better decision when faced with the options of hospitalization or placement in a nursing home. Palliative or hospice care services can be given within a special inpatient facility. In-home hospice care is also a popular option.

The word ‘hospice’ can bring on negative imagery and instant feelings of ‘giving up’. We don’t usually think of hospice as a place where people go to recover, but rather to pass on. However, hospice and palliative care is more than that. Many care facilities, whether they are an inpatient hospice or a service that cares for someone in their own home, are dynamic in the sense that they continue to work to aid in the recovery of a patient if it satisfies their wishes.

There are many reasons to choose reputable Scottsdale hospice care for your loved one:

• A dignified death is an option. Passing on from this world in a cold, white-walled hospital does not have to be your only option for your loved one. Hospice care offers alternative living situations that can be within a comfortable, warm hospice.
• Passing on in the comfort of your home is also an option. 70% of Americans say they would prefer to pass away in their own homes. With hospice care, this opportunity is a reality.
• Caregiver support. Whether your loved one will be living at home or in a hospice, caregiver support is an added helping hand to care with trained caregiving abilities for your loved one.
• A better financial option. Hospice care is often less expensive than nursing home care or hospital care.
• Comfort. Comfort is a big focus of hospice care.
• A better quality of life.
