Who We Are
Crater Community Hospice strongly advocates good pain control and symptom management for terminally ill patients. Crater provides all appropriate medications for the patient's specific disease process and accompanying symptoms to maximum their comfort.
Hospice care is provided wherever the patient may be: in their own home or a family member’s, a nursing home, or an assisted living facility. Hospice is also provided in in-patient units, VA Hospitals, and some correctional facilities.
It is not the stage of the illness, but the degree of pain that dictates what medicine(s) to use.
