What is Hospice?
Hospice care serves those in the end stages of illness who have chosen to focus on comfort and quality of life rather than curative treatments. Our holistic approach to care emphasizes living in comfort during the final weeks or months of life, when curative treatment is no longer realistic. A team of caring professionals provides expert pain and symptom management with equal amounts of emotional support to improve quality of life and provide comfort to our patients and their loved ones.
What is Palliative Care?
Pathways Palliative Care is a unique service that provides comfort to individuals with chronic illness who are not eligible or do not choose hospice care. Unlike hospice, palliative care may be provided at any time during a serious illness and may be used in conjunction with curative treatments. Our palliative care team provides an extra layer of support by focusing on symptom management, educating about the illness and assisting with decisions regarding future care.
