Benefits of hospice care
When a patient and their medical team have decided that curative treatment is no longer the focus, we can provide:
- Nursing care: comfort measures, care coordination, pain management, nutrition and hydration maintenance, and assistance with functional disabilities
- Spiritual care: active listening, Bible reading, sharing stories, praying and singing
- Palliative care: medications, equipment and wound care provided by the nursing team
- Dietary services: assess nutritional needs
- Social and activities services: help patients find comfort and joy through various experiences, talk through financial concerns, and address anxiety and fears

Compassionate care with a team approach
The Good Samaritan Society’s hospice caregivers are trained to provide comfort, ease pain and offer hope in the final stages of life. We strive to help manage symptoms and provide relief.
Ultimately, each patient’s choices and decisions are most important – our goal is to simply help them enjoy each remaining day to the fullest.
Our team also provides bereavement support to family members for 13 months after their loved one’s passing.
With a philosophy based on our mission of making sure patients feel loved, valued and at peace, we are honored to serve you and your loved ones.

Hospice care FAQ
-
What is hospice?
Hospice care focuses on the quality of life for people and their caregivers who are experiencing an advanced, life-limiting illness. This specialized care helps them live as fully and comfortably as possible in the last phases of an incurable disease or physical ailment.
The hospice philosophy accepts death as the final stage of life. It affirms life but does not try to hasten or postpone death. Hospice care treats the person and symptoms of the disease, rather than treating the disease itself.
A team of professionals works together to manage symptoms so that a person's last days may be spent with dignity and quality, Hospice care is also family-centered – it includes the patient and the family in making decisions.
