Health Care Advocacy

One of the most important services we provide is health care advocacy. Far too many health conditions can worsen if a patient’s medical history and current health care regimen are not fully evaluated. In today’s environment, a medical provider’s average time spent with a patient is about 20
minutes. This may not be enough time to fully comprehend all the intricacies of patient’s life story and often leads to managing a specific symptom instead of providing the holistic care required for people to achieve optimum wellness.

Transitions

The most challenging time for anyone facing a health situation is during the transition from one care environment to another – home to hospital, hospital to rehab facility, hospital or rehab facility to home. When you are admitted to the hospital, it’s critical that you have someone with you who knows your history and specific needs. We’re with you every step of the way, to ensure you’re receiving the proper care, treatment and medications – right when you need them. Because of our extensive health care backgrounds, we can raise questions immediately if a specific medication or treatment seems contraindicated or unnecessary. Through meticulous discharge planning, we make certain that every transition is a safe one. Whether it is ensuring that the home is outfitted with necessary medical supplies or that quality care is being delivered by a well-trained staff, we pay attention to the critical details that make a transition seamless.

Palliative and End-of-Life Care

Providing comfort throughout any health care challenge is critically important to a person’s overall well-being. Palliative care is specialized medical care for people with serious illness and is focused on providing relief from the symptoms and stress of a serious illness by reducing pain or treatment side effects. This can happen while a person is still seeking curative treatment or after deciding to stop treatment. Palliative care may help you and your loved ones better understand your illness, talk more openly about your feelings, increase your quality of life and help you decide what treatment you want or do not want. Your goals for treatment guide your care.

End-of-life care begins after curative treatment of the disease is stopped and when it is clear that the person is not going to survive the illness in the coming days, weeks or months. Hospice is an important Medicare benefit that can fund
palliative care services for terminally ill patients whose death is imminent.
