Patient Care

Crater Community Hospice provides a multi-disciplinary approach to hospice care to those who meet medical qualifications with less than six months life expectancy. The goal is to improve the quality of life offering care and comfort, and for the relief of suffering. Care is available regardless of payment source or availability of funding. An interdisciplinary hospice team may provide the following: Manages the patient's pain and symptoms. Assists the patient with the emotional and psychosocial and spiritual aspects of dying. Provides needed drugs, medical supplies, and equipment. Instructs the family on how to care for the patient. Delivers special services like speech and physical therapy when needed. Makes short-term inpatient care available when pain or symptoms become too difficult to treat at home, or the caregiver needs respite time. Provides bereavement care and counseling to surviving family and friends.

Education to the public includes programs on medical directives, Medicare benefits, community resources for caregivers, hospice concept and services, end of life care, needs of the terminally ill, and bereavement needs and resources for adults and children.

Bereavement support is an integral aspect of hospice care to families and is offered for thirteen months following the death of a loved one. Bereavement support and education is extended to the community through support groups facilitated by licensed counselors with bereavement specialists. CCH has a library with books, publications and films available to the community and professionals. CCH Hospice professionals are available to businesses, schools and organizations coping with grief and loss. Hospice bereavement care focuses on helping individuals understand and move forward in the grief process by facilitating their expression of thoughts and feelings in addition to helping them identify or develop and utilize healthy personal coping strategies. Grief and loss needs in the community are addressed through an interdenominational Memorial Service offered each year. Bereavement support groups are available for children and families.

We believe that providing care for the "whole person" is an essential feature of hospice. The mind-body connection is a well-documented physical relationship that has been shown to benefit patients receiving complementary therapies. Benefits include reduced depression, anxiety and pain; lowered blood pressure and decreased heart rate; enhanced breathing capacity; increased comfort and increased quality of life. Complementary services are available to hospice families including caregivers and the patient. Services may include massage therapy, therapeutic healing touch; music therapy; aromatherapy, reflexology and Reiki.

In addition to increasing visibility for CCH's Hospice programs, the CCH Thrift Shop has engaged the public with over 100 volunteers assisting in the store opening, processing of donations and working with customers. The shop is open Tuesday - Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
