WHAT IS HOSPICE?

Care offers many services under our Hospice program including in-home care, medication management, pain management and grief counseling.
How Can Hospice Help?
PHS Hospice Care is a team of professionals trained to prepare patients, loved ones and family members to cope during the journey of terminal illness. PHS Hospice helps to take on some of the daily care giving responsibilities for your loved one; responsibilities that you may or may not be able to take over for them. We are available to help care for your loved one in their own home, that of a family member or caregiver, or in a skilled nursing facility. We help remove some of the burden from family members and other caregivers who may need the extra time and support as they cope with the end of life care.
