How is hospice care different from other types of home health care?
Rather than focusing on curative treatments, hospice care simply focuses on making a patients final days comfortable. Physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, spiritual counselors, home aides and volunteers all work as a coordinated support team. At Harmony, we also focus on more than the patientwe focus on the entire family. As part of our recovery and grief support, your care provider maintains contact with your family for at least a year after the patients death. Often the relationships go on for much longer.
