We are a free standing hospice agency, designed to assist all patients and families in anyway we can.
At Doctor's Hospice we believe :
> that everyone deserves to live out their life to the fullest.
> that no measures should be taken to hasten death.
> that patients should be in control of their care.
> Respect for the worth and dignity of each individual
> Dedication and commitment to the highest quality
compassionate care
> Neither the hastening nor the postponing of death
> Quality of life as opposed to the length of life
> Treatment of the patient, rather than the disease
> Alleviation of pain rather than curative treatment
> Patient care training and counseling support for the
patient, caregiver andfamily
> Hands-on care by the Nurse and Nursing Assistant
when appropriate
> Assistance from the interdisciplinary team on a 24/7/365
basis.
> Bereavement support for families and loved ones after a
loss
> in "helping people find peace....in troubled times."
