The Stoneridge Hospice difference!
When choosing a hospice care provider, WHO you choose makes all the difference.
RN Model of Care – Our hospice patients and families benefit from the continuity of care they receive through consistent RN Case Management visits from one RN who is assigned to monitor their care.
Staffing Ratios – We highly value our hospice nurses and recognize that providing individualized care is made easier when caseloads remain low.
- It is common in the hospice industry for a case manager to manage upwards of 20 cases.
- Our RN Case Managers are tasked with ensuring personalized care for between 12 – 14 cases each.
- This allows more time for one-on-one focus and results in optimal clinical and emotional outcomes for our hospice patients and their loved ones.
Data Supports Our Practices – Continuous analysis of data informs our hospice care decisions as we work to improve quality of care for our hospice patients.
- Stoneridge overwhelmingly receives more 5-star Google ratings than any of our competitors in our service area.
What is Hospice?
When faced with a terminal illness, hospice offers a solution for patients with a goal of returning home and spending the time they have left surrounded by family and friends. It’s often the ideal choice for patients who no longer wish to pursue ineffective or cumbersome interventions.This family-centered, holistic approach provides pain management, emotional healing and spiritual support in the end stage of life and in the place where most of us are most comfortable, right at home.
Hospice care is a type of health care that focuses on the palliation of a terminally ill patient's pain and symptoms and attending to their emotional and spiritual needs at the end of life. Hospice care prioritizes comfort and quality of life by reducing pain and suffering.
A life limiting health diagnosis leaves many patients feeling alone, afraid, confused and uncertain. Exploring these emotions is an important step that can help you feel more confident. The emotional support provided by our hospice caregivers helps clients to explore these emotions and better come to terms with this final stage in life.
When diagnosed with a terminal illness, spiritual beliefs often become ever-present in the mind. A patient might doubt or question their previous beliefs, or they may turn closer toward them to find solace and confidence about facing the challenges ahead. Speaking with a spiritual advisor helps to calm fears so you can better cope with difficult emotions and focus on figuring out a personal path for the journey through this difficult time in life.
The Benefits of Hospice Services?
Hospice care provides many benefits to individuals with life limiting illnesses and a life expectancy of six months or less. While this is not the only option a person has when faced with such a diagnosis, it is one that helps them to remain comfortable at home while also providing necessary support for family members and loved ones through bereavement care and counseling.
Who Pays for Hospice Services?
Once you or your physician contact our office, coverage for services is typically provided by Medicare, Medicaid or the Department of Veterans Affairs at 100%. Private insurance also offers a hospice benefit, but it can vary by provider. Patients should check with their individual provider for details, and Stoneridge Hospice is here to help you through this process.
