What to Expect After Contacting
St. Catherin'es Healthcare
After a referral, the hospice care team meets with the patient and family caregivers to assess the patient’s needs. A social worker is assigned to manage the patient’s case. Care is coordinated with the patient’s regular healthcare professionals. Hospice care is provided at the patient’s home, so no travel is required to access services.
Once St. Catherine's Healthcare has been contacted or a physician referral has been made, our care team works closely with the patient and their family to develop a personalized care plan. Key steps include:
-
Initial Assessment: A hospice care team evaluates the patient’s needs and hospice eligibility.
-
Admission in One Hour or Less: Once contacted, in most cases our team can admit a patient within one hour or schedule an admission days or weeks in advance.
-
Coordinated Care: Hospice services are provided in coordination with the patient’s regular healthcare providers.
-
At-Home Care: St. Catherine's Healthcare provides patient care in-home or in patient facilities such as assisted living, memory care centers or independent living residences.
Medicaid, Medicare and private health insurance often provide full coverage for hospice services.
