When a resident develops a serious illness or reaches a stage where hospice care becomes appropriate, families may prefer to avoid an unnecessary move to another setting. Hospice coordination supports residents receiving hospice services while continuing to live in their residential care environment, with the hospice provider and residential care team working within their respective roles. For families in Oroville, this may become relevant when a loved one’s care priorities shift toward comfort and additional end-of-life support.
How It Works
Hospice coordination helps the resident receive hospice services alongside their existing residential support:
- Hospice providers can deliver their authorized services within the resident’s residential care setting.
- Residential caregivers continue providing appropriate daily assistance within their established scope of care.
- Changes observed in the resident’s condition can be communicated to the hospice team when follow-up is needed.
- Daily routines can accommodate hospice visits and the resident’s changing comfort and support needs.
- Families can remain informed about how residential support and hospice services work together during this stage of care.
What to Expect
Hospice services are provided by the resident’s hospice provider, while residential staff continues supporting everyday care needs within their role. As the resident’s condition changes, support may be adjusted in collaboration with the hospice team and other appropriate care contacts.
