Hospice in Community Facilities: More Caregivers, Less Anxiety
Burke Hospice and Palliative Care goes wherever you are. If you live in a local nursing facility, your Burke Hospice team will visit you there, adding their care to the services you already receive from the facility staff. Our nurses and professionals have the extra pairs of eyes, ears, and hands to help improve your everyday well-being.

In addition to the nursing, grooming, and social support of the facility, the Burke Hospice and Palliative Care team provides visits from…
  • A nurse to manage and ease your symptoms
  • A nurse's aide to assist with bathing and grooming
  • A social worker or counselor to help with social, emotional, or family issues
  • A chaplain for spiritual care
  • A volunteer for companionship and family support

Burke Hospice care also provides:
  • All medical supplies, equipment and medications that are related to your illness
  • Therapies as needed
  • 24-hour on-call nurses to help prevent late-night ER trips
  • Communication and updates for important out-of-town family members
  • Confidential assistance with organizing your affairs
  • Advance Directives completion (Living Will, DNR, will, etc.)
  • Ongoing bereavement counseling to caregivers, family and friends

Medicare and Medicaid both pay for hospice care. Many private insurance plans also have a hospice benefit. For those without coverage, Burke Hospice and Palliative Care offers a flexible billing policy. No one is ever denied care.

If hospice services sound helpful to you, call Burke Hospice and Palliative Care at 828-879-1601 and ask the operator for the Intake Coordinator. You may also ask your facility's social worker to arrange a consultation with Burke Hospice.
