Our Clients’ Testimonials

Americare's team and the care of my father and support to our family was above and beyond what we could have imagined or have done alone. We kept my father at home as those were his wishes. Their support was 24-hour, never delayed and so caring. Grief support is ongoing on a personal level for a year with ongoing support groups.

Billie Pettit ★★★★★

I had just moved my 96-year-old mother into memory care and things weren't going well at the facility. All of this was new to me — what expectations should I have of the facility? They helped guide me as Mom's dementia progressed and she presented new challenges for caregivers. The hospice team worked directly with the facility on care plans and always presented me with clearly defined alternative paths for care.

C. Hill ★★★★★

My husband and I own Holy Family Assisted Living, located in the North Scottsdale, Cave Creek area and have worked with Americare. All of their staff are very knowledgeable and kind to our residents and their families during a time when they need it the most! Highly recommended!!

Understanding Hospice Eligibility & Insurance Coverage

Covered By Medicare, Medicaid & Private Insurance

Most comfort-focused clinical programs are fully funded by federal provisions, meaning eligible individuals rarely incur any out-of-pocket expenses for visiting staff, medications, or equipment. Our administrative team handles all the necessary verification processes directly with your provider to ensure a stress-free admission.

Commercial policies and managed care plans likewise provide extensive allotments for supportive end-of-life services, often matching the complete scope of government assistance. Qualification generally requires a physician to confirm the presence of an advanced, limiting medical condition. Regardless of your financial or insurance situation, our coordinators are fully prepared to explore every available avenue to guarantee uninterrupted, dignified attention.

Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Our Hospice Care

Both focus on providing comfort and improving the quality of life for patients with serious illnesses, but they differ in the stages at which they are required. Palliative care can be offered at any stage of a serious illness and is not limited to those at the end of life, while hospice care is necessary only for patients who are in the final stages of their life, typically with six months or less to live, as determined by a physician. Another difference is that palliative care focuses on relieving symptoms and stress and can be provided alongside curative treatments. Hospice care shifts the focus entirely from curative treatments to comfort care, emphasizing symptom management, emotional support, and quality of life.

The frequency of nursing staff visits depends on the individual needs of the patient and their family. Typically, a nurse will visit several times a week to help the patient with basic needs, while also helping manage symptoms, provide treatment, and offer support to the family. The frequency can increase as needed, especially if the patient’s condition changes or if there are special circumstances that require more intensive care. In addition to scheduled visits, hospice care teams are available on call 24/7 to address any urgent needs or concerns that may arise outside of regular visits. Feel free to contact us to learn more about the visits.

Patients in hospice care are not required to discontinue all their prescribed medications. The approach to medication in hospice is to focus on comfort and symptom management rather than curative treatment. Medications that are necessary for the patient’s comfort and quality of life are continued, while those that are no longer contributing to the patient’s well-being or are meant for long-term outcomes may be reevaluated. The hospice care team works closely with the patient and their family to determine which medications should be continued, adjusted, or discontinued based on the patient’s current needs and goals of care.

Yes, both Medicaid and Medicare Advantage plans cover hospice care for patients who meet the eligibility criteria. Medicare provides comprehensive hospice benefits, including doctor services, nursing care, medical equipment, supplies, medication for symptom management and pain relief, hospice aide and homemaker services, physical and occupational therapy, and bereavement counseling. Medicaid coverage for hospice care varies by state but generally includes similar benefits. However, we still recommend patients and families talk to their insurance provider to understand the specific coverage details and any potential out-of-pocket costs. This way, they can be well-informed about the insurance cover and avoid issues in the long term.

Yes, patients with Alzheimer’s or advanced dementia can qualify for hospice care. Determining eligibility for hospice for these patients typically involves assessing the progression of the disease and the presence of related health complications. The usual criteria include advanced-stage dementia, inability to perform daily activities, limited verbal communication, and other health issues that signify a decline toward the end of life. The goal of hospice care for patients with Alzheimer’s or advanced dementia is to provide comfort, manage symptoms, and support the patient and their family during this challenging time. Feel free to contact our staff to learn more about hospice care.

Yes, our hospice facility provides a hospital bed and necessary medical equipment to ensure the comfort and care of our patients. This can include items like wheelchairs, walkers, respiratory equipment, and other devices tailored to the patient’s needs. The goal is to manage symptoms effectively and maintain the best possible quality of life in a familiar, comfortable environment. The hospice care team assesses each patient’s specific needs and coordinates the delivery and setup of all necessary equipment in the patient’s home. You can contact our staff to get more information about the types of equipment and tools we offer.

Yes, we offer 24/7 hospice care services, ensuring that patients and their families have access to support and care at any time of the day or night.
