Hospice is more than medical care. We take a whole-person approach that supports patients and their loved ones emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. Social workers are at the center of this circle of care, providing guidance, assistance, and comfort during one of life’s most challenging journeys. With March being Social Work Month, we wanted to take the time to recognize and celebrate the incredible impact that social workers have in hospice care.

At Faith Hospice, we provide a 360-degree circle of care, ensuring that no patient or family walks this journey alone. If you or a loved one is considering hospice, we’re here to answer your questions, provide guidance, and offer compassionate support every step of the way. Learn more about our 360-degree approach to care in this blog.

When someone is nearing the end of life, they might have many different problems, such as pain, trouble sleeping, worry, or sadness. Along with regular medical care, complementary therapies are helpful in treating these issues.   Complementary therapies include things like aromatherapy, relaxing massages, calming music, or spending time with a loving animal. These therapies focus on taking care of the whole person – mind,  body, and spirit – to make life better for patients.
