Palliative Care Services

The primary goal of palliative care is to relieve and prevent the suffering of patients who are battling a serious illness in all disease stages, as well as those who are living with chronic diseases.

Palliative care is designed to manage symptoms, control pain, promote comfort and provide spiritual and emotional support for the patient and family.

Certified Wound Care

A Wound Care Certified (WCC) nurse provides expert guidance to patients, caregivers on wound care. This is accomplished by:

  • Assessing each patient who has a wound and suggesting appropriate interventions to promote wound healing;
  • Working closely with physicians in providing the most effective wound care possible;
  • Providing in-depth training to Agency nurses on interventions necessary to prevent skin breakdown and wound management;
  • Assessing patients for appropriateness for a Wound Vac (a special device to assist in wound healing);
  • Teaching patients and/or caregivers how to care for a wound.
"These few words will not express the full extent of my appreciation for all your care and tenderness. My mom had endured a long time of pain and I am so grateful that you were there for her in her final days."
