Building Confidence Through Rosecrans Hospice Care

Rosecrans' families gain competence and support through these hospice services:

• Patient education makes complex care manageable with nurses who teach families to recognize symptoms, administer medications safely, and know exactly when professional intervention becomes necessary
• Hands-on caregiving training showing family members proper techniques for bathing, positioning, transferring patients safely, and providing personal care without causing injury or discomfort
• Medical equipment with instruction, including hospital beds, oxygen systems, wheelchairs, and supplies, delivered to your Rosecrans home, along with clear training on proper use
• Social workers are building family capacity, helping households organize caregiving schedules, communicate effectively with each other, and access community resources that lighten the load
• Spiritual care addressing fears, honestly offering chaplains who acknowledge uncertainty while helping families find meaning and purpose during difficult circumstances
• Veteran programs providing specialized knowledge through our We Honor Veterans initiative, teaching families about military-related needs and connecting them with appropriate resources‍
• Bereavement support prepares families by providing grief education before loss occurs and continuing counseling for up to 13 months after death
