Hospice and Palliative Care Support

Sometimes, despite your strongest wish otherwise, the best you can do for a loved one is to make sure they are not suffering. They can retain some quality of life as they live with serious illness. Palliative care helps address the pain, symptoms, and stress of their illness. For those who are approaching the end of life with little likelihood of recovery, hospice care provides dignity for the person. It gives peace of mind for those close to them. Hospice offers pain and symptom management as well as emotional support. Griswold Care Providers support palliative and hospice patients and their families with:
