Who We Are
Report
Hospice care is a special kind of care that focuses on managing pain and symptoms associated with life-limiting illness to improve the patient's quality of life. Houston Hospice's approach includes the patient and family as one unit. One of the most important things that we hear from families is that we serve them and their loved ones with heart.
Our Services
Report
We help patients and families make memories and enjoy their lives fully. Our doctors and nurses specialize in managing pain and symptoms that are unique to life-limiting illnesses. Other medical professionals are not trained to do this. We come to you. Patients can stay at home longer because we make house calls, we're on call 24/7, and we deliver any needed medical equipment.
How We Help
Report
Hospice care is for any patient facing an end-stage illness, with life expectancy of 6 months or less should the illness run its natural course. Our services are covered by Medicare, Medicaid and most private insurers. As a nonprofit, we believe everyone has a right to receive care. We believe the care provided for the family and loved ones is as important as the care of the patient.
Volunteers
Report
Houston Hospice has a robust volunteer program. Volunteers help set the tone for the compassionate care our patients and families receive. As an integral part of the Houston Hospice team, volunteers serve our patients and families with caring expertise in various settings where needed throughout our ten-county service area.
