Description:
Serving Eastern Ashland, Iron & Vilas Counties.
Hospice services are available to patients who have a terminal illness where the goal of treatment is pain management and symptom control. Services are provided by a team of trained professionals – physicians, nurses, chaplains, social workers, aides, and volunteers – who provide medical care and support services. Some medical equipment and medications related to the patients terminal illness may also by supplied.
Hospice is about living life to the fullest in secure and familiar surroundings with those who matter most—family and friends. We believe that each person has the right to die pain-free and with dignity. We believe in supporting the caregiver as well as the patient.
