Calumet Park Hospice Care
Calumet Park Hospice Care
At Shiloh Hospice, we believe that every moment matters, especially during the end-of-life journey. Hospice care is not just about managing symptoms; it’s about providing a holistic approach that prioritizes comfort, dignity and quality of life for both patients and their families. Our compassionate Calumet Park hospice care services are tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual, ensuring that this significant time is filled with peace.
What is Hospice Care?
Hospice care is a specialized form of medical care designed for individuals facing life-limiting illnesses. Unlike traditional medical treatments aimed at curing the illness, hospice care focuses on providing relief from symptoms and stress, enhancing the quality of life for patients and families. This form of care is centered around a comprehensive approach that addresses the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of the patient.
Our Comprehensive Approach to Care
At Shiloh Hospice, our dedicated team works closely with patients and their families to create a personalized care plan that respects their wishes and enhances their well-being. Our services include:
- Physician-Directed Care: Our physicians lead a team that integrates compassion and expertise, ensuring that every aspect of the patient’s health is addressed.
- Nursing Services: Our skilled nursing staff is committed to ensuring comfort and safety, providing essential care that includes monitoring vitals and managing daily healthcare needs.
- Medical Social Work: We understand the emotional toll a terminal illness can take on families. Our social workers offer counseling and resources to help families navigate this challenging time.
- Spiritual Support: Recognizing the importance of spirituality, our chaplains offer personalized spiritual care that respects all beliefs and traditions, providing solace.
- Volunteers and Support Team: Our trained volunteers offer companionship and emotional support, ensuring that no one feels alone during this journey.

Similarly, palliative care shares the same philosophy of comprehensive patient care, extending its services to non-terminal patients, offering them the opportunity to lead longer, happier lives.
