Hospice care isn't delivered by one person — it's a full team of physicians, nurses, aides, social workers, chaplains, and volunteers, working together around your loved one. Whatever the hour, the same team is one call away at 772-403-4500.
Jump straight to the section that answers your question.
Hospice care is delivered by an interdisciplinary team built around your loved one and your family, not a single provider working alone. Your own physician stays part of the plan alongside our hospice medical director, and the team adjusts as your loved one's needs change. You'll get to know these people, and they'll get to know your family too.
Your loved one may continue seeing their current physician while receiving hospice care. Our hospice medical director and care team work alongside the physician to coordinate care and support the patient’s comfort and needs.
The same team that knows your family is reachable at 772-403-4500, day or night, weekends and holidays included.
Visits and support shift as your loved one's needs change, without a new team or a new set of introductions.
Every patient is cared for by a team of specialists, each with a distinct role. Here's who you'll come to know.
Your loved one's own physician is welcome to stay involved. Our hospice medical director oversees the clinical plan and helps manage complex pain or symptoms alongside them.
Your most frequent visitor and primary clinical contact. Your nurse manages symptoms and medications and teaches your family what to expect along the way.
A certified nursing assistant who helps with bathing, dressing, and daily personal care — often becoming a familiar, trusted face in your home.
Helps your family navigate insurance questions, advance directives, and community resources, acting as your advocate for the logistics of care.
Offers spiritual support for any faith tradition, or none at all, and can coordinate with your family's own clergy if you'd like.
Questions don't wait for business hours, so neither do we. After-hours triage nurses can consult by phone or send a team member to your loved one's side any time — weekends and holidays included. Call us at 772-403-4500.
