- Type of inpatient care
- Both general inpatient care and respite care
- Medical supplies and equipment
- Brought in through an outside supplier
Short stays in a hospice inpatient unit, hospital, or nursing home for pain or symptoms that cannot be managed where the patient lives, or to give family caregivers a break.
Equipment and supplies tied to the terminal illness and the plan of care, such as a hospital bed, oxygen, wound supplies, or a wheelchair.
Medicare lets hospices provide these services through arrangements with other organizations. Either way, the hospice stays responsible for the covered care in the patient’s plan of care.

What Is Hospice Care Like in RIVERSIDE?

At Dignified Hospice Care, the team includes four total employees. This includes one registered nurse and one licensed practical nurse. They also work with one volunteer to provide extra help. These staff members visit patients where they live. That might be a private house or a care facility. The team coordinates with the family to create a plan of care that matches the patient needs.

They work together to keep the patient safe and comfortable every day.
What to Ask When Choosing a Hospice Provider
You should feel confident in the team you pick for your loved one. Start by asking how quickly they can get a nurse to your home in an emergency. It helps to know if they offer visits on nights and weekends. Ask how they coordinate care with the patient current doctor. You might also ask how they support family members with grief. It is helpful to know what the volunteer does during their visits. Ask about the experience level of the nursing staff on the team. You can also ask what happens if the patient needs a higher level of care than home visits provide. Do they have a contract with a local inpatient unit? These questions help you understand the full scope of their services. Take your time to get clear answers. A good provider will be happy to explain their processes to you. Good communication is a sign of a strong agency.
