Hospice Care at Home

When diagnosed with a life-limiting illness, everyone deserves the opportunity to enjoy the time they have left to the fullest. That’s the goal of hospice care at home – and with hospice services from Suncrest, you can provide your loved one with a more peaceful end-of-life experience.

Quality of life is of the utmost importance for the terminally ill. When no cure exists, staying at home, where they can remain comfortable and be near family and friends, is the priority. To assist with that, we offer an array of hospice services, including:

• Arrangements for medication, medical equipment and in-home care supplies
• Treatments designed to help alleviate pain and distressing symptoms
• Physical therapy, speech-language pathology and occupational services
• Mental, emotional, psychosocial, spiritual and bereavement support
• Coordination of care and a helping hand with community resources

For those in need, short-term in-patient care is available, but we do whatever we can to help our clients return to their Richmond homes. And, we always have hospice nurses on call, ready to answer questions and address patient concerns. The Suncrest team can provide peace of mind for you, your loved one and the entire family.

Home Health Services

Caring for Ames residents who are nearing the end of life isn’t all we do here at Suncrest. Our professional team also cares for those who need a helping hand after a surgical procedure, hospital stay or health crisis.

In-home health services from an approved Medicare home care agency like Suncrest is acknowledged to be as effective as that provided in skilled nursing facilities and hospitals in the Ames area. And for those who are homebound, many services are covered. We can provide your loved one with:

• Part-time or intermittent skilled nursing services
• Home medical equipment and supplies
• Medication education and supervision
• Infusion therapy and ambulatory IV services
• Physical, occupational and speech-language therapies
• Personal care services from home health aides

As we do with patients in need of hospice care at home, the Suncrest team provides personalized care for those in recovery. With our support, your loved one can enjoy greater comfort and safety as they work through their health challenge.
