Question of the Month

Can My Family Afford Hospice?

You can't afford not to.

Most insurance companies, including Medicare and Medicaid, will pay for Hospice benefits. Generally there is very little that comes out of your pocket for Hospice care. Almost always coverage includes such things as beds, commodes, oxygen and even your medications related to your illness or hospice comfort care.

Please call and ask how you can be afforded the opportunity to receive hospice care from Catholic Community Hospice.

 

 

 

Grief Support

Each individual’s grief is distinctive. The grief support specialists at Catholic Community Hospice know this and are here to assist you on your road to healing. Our grief support groups for the community will help you find ways to handle your grief and provide you with support and direction on your journey through healing.

Grief support for individuals is available to family members and caregivers of Catholic Community Hospice patients, as well as those individuals who have had a family member served by a hospice outside Catholic Community Hospice’s service area. A grief support team member will work with you to meet your needs.

Support is also available through programs open to all in the community.

  • Grief support groups are free and available to people in the community who have experienced a loss.
  • Memorial events supply a chance to gather with others in the area and remember those we have lost.
