A Beautiful End Begins with RVNAhealth
When your loved one is faced with a terminal diagnosis and must begin to transition into hospice care, they can embrace the ever-welcoming quality of life over the curative measures they are faced with when they rely upon the dedicated and compassionate team here at RVNAhealth.
What is Hospice Care?
Hospice is an end-of-life care and treatment philosophy primarily focused on a patient’s quality of life without continued curative treatment.*
The term hospice originates from the Latin word ‘hospis,’ or shelter. Here at RVNAhealth our clinic has been recognized as the preferred regional hospice resource in Bethel for sheltering you and your loved ones through a transitional phase that is not only compassionate and pain free but a comprehensive transition from one phase of life to another. Our team of hospice caregivers provides our high-quality hospice care to patients who reside in their own private homes or those who reside in a skilled nursing or assisted living facilities.
How Long is Hospice Care?
Our team of compassionate professionals provides hospice care to patients in Bethel whose curative options have been entirely exhausted and are faced with a mere life expectancy of six months or less. There are, however, some patients who receive the hospice benefits and care longer than the six months while other patients are under hospice care for shorter lengths of time. The quality hospice care we provide to patients and their families offers not only much needed support but adds a sense of calm and beauty to end of life care.
