Our Home Health Services

As a palliative care service, hospice care focuses on keeping care recipients as comfortable as possible during their end-of-life journey. We offer two types of in home hospice care: routine and continuous. With routine home care, a caregiver will come to the patient’s residence up to 7 days per week. With continuous care, a nurse or aide will stay at the patient’s residence for up to 24 hours per day. The right care option for your loved one is determined by their specific care needs. If you’re not sure which is the best choice for your family member, we’re happy to discuss this with you. No matter which level of care we’re providing, Bayou City Hospice in Houston is committed to managing your loved one’s symptoms to reduce pain and discomfort and make their time at home more peaceful.

In addition to providing home visits, hospice care covers the cost of the medication used to address your loved one’s terminal diagnosis or comfort. Hospice care also provides medical supplies and equipment related to your loved one’s specific care and comfort needs, such as a wheelchair, hospital bed, incontinence supplies, oxygen concentrator, and other necessary items. Give us a call to learn more about what is and is not included in hospice care.

Routine Services

The most common type of hospice care is routine home care. This level of care includes visits from a care team member up to seven days per week. These visits can be regularly scheduled or on an on-call basis, and they occur to provide patients with symptom management, palliative care, and to help prevent crises. Routine home care allows hospice care recipients in Houston to stay in their homes, which many find to be more comfortable than a hospital. We also have a 24-hour call line where you can access assistance from a Nurse Manager and on-call staff no matter the time of day or night.

Continuous Services

Continuous care includes healthcare provided up to 24 hours per day and is typically offered when routine visits aren’t sufficiently controlling your loved one’s symptoms. With routine care, nurses or nursing aides will remain bedside in order to monitor your loved one’s condition and quickly address changes in their symptoms or comfort level. We’ll also keep your loved one’s physicians and RN Case Managers up to date on the patient’s health status so everyone is on the same page. Continuous care is great way to ensure your loved one receives timely care and your family receives emotional support. Continuous care also allows you to take a step back from caregiving to focus on enjoying quality time with your family.

Supplemental Services

To make sure patients receive the best care possible, Bayou City Hospice offers supplemental services in addition to medical services. Supplemental services go above and beyond what’s required by Medicare and include options like pet therapy, massage therapy, and music therapy. Supplemental options provide non-medical techniques to help manage a patient’s symptoms, control pain and reduce stress.
