Hospice & Palliative

Hospice Care in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

WHAT IS HOSPICE ?

When curing a serious illness is no longer possible, many people choose to stop curative treatment and accept palliative care. Palliative care means emphasis is placed on comfort and control of symptoms. It is not intended to prolong life. Hospice Care is provided primarily in the home, nursing home, or in an assisted living facility.

The Hospice Team assists family members in caring for their loved one in the comfortable and familiar surroundings of their own home whenever possible. Anova Hospice not only focuses on the special needs of the patient, but also provides support to their families. With our team of medical professionals, Anova Hospice strives to meet the physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs of both the family and the patient.

Anova Hospice recognizes that everyone is a unique individual. With the expert guidance and counseling of our Hospice Team, Patient and families can make their own decisions about what is important to them. Anova Hospice respects the decisions of the family, and helps to create and atmosphere of understanding acceptance.

Help is just a phone call away. Anyone can call Anova Health Care System to receive information about hospice services. We offer support to patients and families 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We will also contact the physician to ensure that the patient is eligible for the hospice benefit. If hospice is right for you, a hospice representative will meet with you and your family for admission to hospice. A plan of care will be developed by you, your physician, and the hospice interdisciplinary team that is specific to your needs.
