How does Local Hospice “manage pain”?
Local Hospice believes that emotinal and spiritual pain are just as real and in need of attention as physical pain, so it can address each. Local Hospice nurses and doctors are up to date on the latest medications and devices for pain and symptom relief. In addition, physical and occupational therapists can assist patients to be as mobile and self sufficient as they wish. Various counselors, including clergy , are available to assist family members as well as patients.
