Charlotte, North Carolina Hospice Care

Hospice programs offer a wide array of services for terminally ill patients and their loved ones. For example, a specially trained hospice doctor is available to evaluate the patient and order drugs and treatments intended to improve comfort. Hospice doctors are experts in managing pain and other distressing symptoms that may occur at the end of life. A nurse usually visits the patient most frequently to supervise the doctor's plan of care and a nurse's aide provides personal care. A social worker and chaplain are also available to offer emotional, practical, and spiritual support.
