Palliative Care/Hospice
Friendship Manor offers a full spectrum of care designed to respect the dignity of the individual. Whether you or your loved one is seeking Hospice or Palliative Care, our staff is skilled and compassionate in its delivery with the goal of providing comfort and freedom from pain. At the same time, we aim to provide the patient with as much independence and control as possible, for as long as possible.
Hospice is a philosophy of care focused on comfort and quality of life for chronically ill or terminally ill residents. It is designed to treat the whole person emotionally, socially, spiritually and physically by providing comfort and support to patients and their families when a life-limiting illness no longer responds to cure-oriented treatments. As part of the process, family members also receive care and support.
Friendship Manor contracts with a variety of hospice agencies. Giving families and their loved one’s options is something that we emphasize.
