What is Hospice?
If you are wondering about hospice services, chances are you or someone you love is facing a life-limiting illness. When cure is no longer an option, Midland Care Hospice can help. When people hear the word hospice they can become fearful about what it all means. At Midland it means hope, comfort and support at all times.
It means a staff committed to providing care to patients and families that put focus on the hope for each new day. It means an experienced staff to provide comfort to each patient through effective pain and symptom management. It means staff are available to provide care, education, and emotional and spiritual counseling to support each patient and family through what can be a very stressful and difficult moment - yet a very precious time.
Hospice care is a supportive health care option, meeting end-of-life needs, for those who are facing a life-limiting illness. Care takes place in your own home, long-term care facility, assisted living environment or Hospice House. Whereever you are, we will come to you. The focus is on quality of life.
