Today, too many Americans die alone.
Most people do not want to die by themselves in sterile, impersonal surroundings, hooked up to machines and cut off from family
and friends. Instead they prefer to spend their last days at home, alert and free from pain with the people they love.
Gateway can provide peace of mind and service that allows the family to provide ongoing support and love.
Gateway Hospice makes this possible.
Hospice is a supportive home based service focused on pain and symptom management to individuals with a life limiting illness.
The hospice focus is to treat the whole person (body, mind and spirit) and not just the disease.
Hospice enables patients to remain alert and carry on a pain free lifestyle.
Hospice affirms the human spirit and allows the patient dignity,
comfort, and support when aggressive medicine is no longer desired or appropriate. Gateway team includes:
- Patient/Family
- Patient’s Attending Physician
- RN, LPN, Hospice Aides, Spiritual, Volunteers, Bereavement Services
