Utah Hospice Care

If you or a loved one have been diagnosed with a terminal illness or are facing the difficulties of an advanced illness, now is the time to call. Utah Hospice is intended to help patients and their families achieve greater peace of mind, quality of life, and comfort over the last six months of life. Waiting until the last few days or weeks means you won’t get the full benefit from hospice. We commonly hear families express that they wish they had called sooner.

Hospice care is a comfort care approach to caring for an individual with a terminal illness. Instead of traditional, curative measures, hospice services focus on providing care, quality, and comfort at the end of life. Hospice helps both patients and their loved ones attain a sense of closure and understanding. This closure provides more lasting memories and enjoyable moments.

Cancer is only one of many diagnoses that hospice can help. Others include circulatory or heart disease, dementia, respiratory disease, stroke, kidney disease, liver failure, AIDS, ALS, and Parkinson’s Disease. If you are unsure if your prognosis would qualify for hospice services, call us today!

Our loving care team will come wherever you are living. This can be in the comfort of your home, a family member’s home, an assisted living facility, a skilled nursing home, or anywhere else you may call home!

When faced with an end-of-life scenario, 90% of patients prefer to die in the comfort of their homes. Hospice provides patients with this opportunity. While there are stand-alone hospice centers throughout the United States, most hospice care occurs within the home.

The answer is a resounding no. You do not have to be bed-bound. Many patients who opt for hospice services continue to lead fulfilling, active, and productive lifestyles. Hospice gives you and your family control over your end-of-life experience.
