Description
Hospice of the Foothills provides care that focuses on the quality of life for people and their caregivers who are experiencing an advanced, life-limiting illness. Hospice care provides compassionate care for people in the last phases of incurable disease so that they may live as fully and comfortably as possible.
 
Hospice is available to anyone with a terminal disease with a prognosis of six months or less. A primary goal of hospice is to control pain and other symptoms so the person can remain as alert and comfortable as possible. Hospice care is provided to patients wherever they call home.
 
Hospice of the Foothills includes a multi-disciplinary team of professionals including a hospice and palliative care certified medical director, hospice trained nurses, social workers, spiritual counselors, hospice aides, therapists, and volunteers working together to address the unique physical, social, emotional, and spiritual needs of each patient and family. Hospice of the Foothills does not act as the primary caregiver rather, we support the family and caregivers, in providing care to their loved one.
