Hospice Programs in Maine
There
are many hospice programs in Maine providing services such as pain
and symptom management, respite care, psychosocial support,
spiritual support, transportation, education and bereavement
support. These are community-based volunteer programs and
Medicare-certified programs providing services through a structured
network of trained volunteers, clergy, nurses, therapists and
counselors working in cooperation with the individual's primary
physician.
Regardless of how a hospice program is structured or organized,
whether it is a division of a home health agency, hospital-based, or
community-based, all programs emphasize the use of trained
volunteers as well as professionals in meeting individual and family
needs.
To learn more about hospice, or for assistance finding hospice
services, call the Maine Hospice Council. We are located in Augusta,
Maine, with a toll-free number: 1-800-438-5963. Our staff will be
happy to talk to you and answer any questions you may have.
