Generally, hospice staff will visit anywhere between two to seven times per week, depending on the patient’s needs. As the hospice patient’s condition changes, team members adjust their visits to accommodate these changes and ensure optimal care and comfort. The best plan of care is continually updated

• A team member coordinates care with hospital staff
• There is a 24 hour Registered Nurse available to manage these symptoms. Once symptoms are under control, the patient will return to their home usually under the routine level of care.

• Patients are transferred to a contracted skilled nursing facility that will manage the care of the patient in conjunction with the hospice. Respite Care is only provided on an occasional basis, for a maximum of five days in every certification period.
