Our mission is to provide exceptional quality of care to our patients and their families who are dealing with a life limiting illness. Our staff is committed to the hospice philosophy of patient choice and dignity.
Our vision is to promote the physical, emotional and spiritual well-being both of our patients and their families and to provide the highest quality, comprehensive and compassionate end-of-life care.
Hospice Care focuses on comfort care and relief of symptoms such as pain, shortness of breathing, fatigue, and difficulty breathing. It has been shown the terminally ill patients benefit from hospice by experiencing comfort, better pain control, fewer hospitalizations, and invasive treatments, and overall satisfaction with end-of-life care.
Your loved one is eligible for hospice care when a physician certifies that they have terminal illness with a prognosis of six months or less if the disease runs its normal course.
Palliative Care focuses on pain and symptom management while patients and families pursue other more aggressive treatment options as well as physical therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy.
We have a Nurse Practioner – Led Community – Based Palliative (NPCBP) Program, servicing patients in the home, assisted living and skilled nursing facilities.
Hospice and Palliative care are elected benefits covered under Medicare, as well as under many private insurance plans.
Integrated serves Lake County Illinois and parts of the Northshore.
