Your Path to Emotional and Spiritual Support
Step 1.
Comprehensive Assessment and Needs Identification
Within 48 hours of hospice admission, a social worker and chaplain visit your home to conduct separate assessments. The social worker explores emotional health, family dynamics, financial concerns, and advance directives.
Step 2.
Regular Counseling Sessions and Ongoing Support
Based on your plan, you'll receive scheduled visits typically weekly for social work and bi-weekly for chaplaincy, with frequency adjusted to your needs. Sessions occur in your home, care facility, or via telehealth. Between visits, our team remains available by phone for questions, crisis support, or spontaneous needs.
Step 3.
Family Involvement and Communication Facilitation
We invite family members to participate in counseling sessions, attend care conferences, or receive individual support. Our goal is to strengthen family bonds, resolve conflicts, and ensure everyone feels heard and supported throughout the hospice journey.
Step 4.
Legacy Work and Closure Activities
As your illness progresses, we guide meaningful legacy projects, facilitate important conversations, and help you and your family prepare for death with intention and love. These activities provide therapeutic benefit and create lasting gifts for grieving survivors.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to be religious to receive spiritual care?
Absolutely not. Our chaplains serve people of all faith traditions and those with no religious affiliation. Spiritual care addresses your search for meaning, connection, and peace whether rooted in religion, nature, relationships, art, or personal philosophy. We honor your beliefs and never impose our own.
Can my family receive counseling even if the patient declines it?
Yes. Family members and caregivers can receive individual or group counseling regardless of the patient’s participation. Caregiver burnout, anticipatory grief, and family conflict are legitimate concerns that warrant professional support, and we address these needs independently.
What if I need more frequent visits during a crisis?
When symptoms escalate, we will work with your doctor to provide additional care during crisis or traumatic events including increased visits for emotional, spiritual, and pain.
Can you help with advance care planning or difficult medical decisions?
Our social workers specialize in facilitating advance care planning conversations, helping families understand medical options, clarifying patient values and wishes, and supporting difficult decisions about code status, treatment withdrawal, and hospice election. We provide decision making frameworks that reduce guilt and second-guessing.
