What we do
Hospice of Garrett County, Inc. provides total in-home, or home-like care for terminally-ill patients, with six months or less to live, if the disease follows its normal progression. Hospice provides in-home nursing care, certified nursing assistants, social workers, volunteer caregivers, dietary counseling, medical supplies, equipment, medications, and short-term, or respite care, as needed, at no cost to the patient, or family. Services can be provided in the patient’s home, assisted living or skilled nursing facility.
Services include pain control, physical, emotional, social and spiritual support for the patient and the patient’s family during the illness, and through the grief and bereavement process.
Following a patient’s death, Hospice of Garrett County provides bereavement services and support to family members and caregivers for up to 13 months.
