Our Levels of Care in Brookhaven, GA
We provide more support during the last week of life than 90% of area hospices by offering all four levels of Medicare-covered care along with a fifth exclusive level of care called Transitional Care.
- Routine Home Care: By providing routine home care, we help the patient to spend as much time at home as possible where they feel safe and comfortable.
- Continuous Care: During a period of crisis, our team provides short-term Continuous Care at home.
- Respite Care: Caregivers who need time to rest and recharge can call upon respite care, which provides 5 consecutive days of in-patient facility care for a patient.
- In-Patient Care: When a patient’s needs exceed what can be treated at home, In-Patient Care is provided at a contracted facility for 8 days or less.
- Transitional Care: Exclusive to Golden Rule Hospice, Transitional Care offers additional supportive care when a patient in active decline does not qualify for Continuous Care.
