At Golden Rule Hospice, we provide patients with the palliative support and education needed to manage symptoms and bring about comfort and relief.

We work closely with the patient, the family, and the patient’s physician, to come up with a personalized plan that abides by the patient’s wishes.

Our goals are to maximize the dignity and comfort of the patient and to ensure that the patient is able to spend as much quality time as possible, with their loved ones. We do this by providing the following services.

• Skilled Nursing Services:

  Our Registered Nurses work hard to minimize pain and discomfort for patients through treatments that comply with the patient’s wishes. They also can help educate the patient’s family so that caregivers can keep their loved one safe and comfortable.

• Certified Nursing Assistant And Homemaker Services:

  Our certified nursing assistants play a key role in our exclusive Transitional Care program. They can assist patients who are unable to complete daily hygiene tasks by helping them bathe, dress, and take care of their dental health. If family caregivers are having a hard time keeping up with household chores, nursing assistants may help with basic cleaning.

• Medical Consultation:

  Patients can retain the relationship of working with their primary care providers as well as utilizing the expertise of Golden Rule Hospice’s Medical Directors. Our physicians can provide medical recommendations and write prescriptions as needed. You can consult with our physicians at any time, to discuss symptom progression and treatment options. Our physicians will always honor the patient’s wishes and those of the family and primary provider. Since our physicians are specialized in pain management, their goal is to ensure the comfort of our patients.

• 24-Hour On-Call Nurse:

  No matter the time of day or night, our on-call nursing team can provide immediate response services when you need them. Rest assured that help is on standby at all times.

• Prescription Drugs:

  Our Hospice Medical Director can write prescriptions for appropriate medications to help manage symptoms for a wide range of health conditions.

• Dietary Counseling:

  Diet can make a big difference in the progression of a health condition. We can offer personalized recommendations to patients to help them feel and function at their best.

• Therapy (Physical, Speech & Occupational):

  We have skilled professionals trained in a variety of different types of therapy here to help patients to maximize mobility and autonomy.
