We understand that navigating end-of-life care can be challenging, and our goal is to ensure that you and your family receive the support and medical attention needed during this difficult time.

What Are Visiting Nurses?

Visiting nurses are specially trained healthcare professionals who provide individualized hospice care at home. They focus on improving the quality of life for patients diagnosed with six months or less to live. Our visiting nurses are dedicated to assessing your needs, managing symptoms, and ensuring you are as comfortable and pain-free as possible.

Comprehensive Hospice Care at Home

Our visiting nurses offer a wide range of services designed to address the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of our patients and their families. Here’s what you can expect from Assurance Hospice Visiting Nurses:

Regular Assessments and Care Planning

Our nurses visit you weekly to assess your condition and ensure your care plan is implemented effectively. They work closely with you, your family, and other healthcare providers to ensure that your goals are met and that you have everything you need for optimal comfort.

Symptom Management and Comfort Care

One of the primary roles of our visiting nurses is to manage symptoms and provide comfort care. They monitor your vitals, assess your breathing, and check for any safety hazards in your living space. They also manage pain and other symptoms through medication and other therapeutic interventions, ensuring that you remain as comfortable as possible.

Education and Support for Families

Our visiting nurses provide essential education and support for family members and caregivers. They teach you how to administer medications, discuss medication side effects, and provide guidance on skincare, nutrition, and overall disease management. Additionally, they are there to answer any questions and provide emotional support during this difficult time.

Coordination of Care

The visiting nurse collaborates with your family physician, specialists, social workers, spiritual support counselors, home health aides, and other healthcare team members. This ensures a comprehensive approach to your in-home hospice care, addressing all aspects of your well-being.
