Providing compassionate in-home and out-patient care in Plymouth, NH

Facing a terminal diagnosis is one of the hardest moments for patients and the people who love them. Pemi-Baker Hospice & Home Health wants families to know that hospice care can bring comfort, guidance, and a stronger focus on quality of life during this time.You matter, Hospice care from Pemi-Baker Hospice & Home Health

Many people believe that starting hospice means death is near, but that is not always the case. Some patients even improve enough to graduate from hospice care. Pemi-Baker hopes to clear up common misunderstandings and help families see how much support hospice can offer.

To receive hospice services, a patient must have a terminal diagnosis with an expected life expectancy of six months or less. This is an estimate, not a deadline. Pemi-Baker encourages families to call as soon as they receive a diagnosis so a hospice consult can be done in the home. This gives the entire family a chance to ask questions, learn about available services, and find out if the patient qualifies. Hospice is covered under Medicare A benefits, which means the hospice provider pays for care related to the terminal diagnosis.

Hospice care includes a wide range of services. These may involve skilled nursing visits, medical equipment, supplies, medications, social worker support, chaplain services, home health aides, bereavement support for families, and respite care. All services can be provided in the patient’s home or in a facility.

For patients living in a facility, hospice adds an extra layer of support on top of the care already being provided. This helps ensure the patient’s physical, emotional, and spiritual needs are met in a well-coordinated and personal way.

“Hospice is not about giving up. It is about helping people live their remaining time with as much comfort and dignity as possible, while also supporting the families who walk this path with them,” said Aubrey Engle, RN, Executive Director of Pemi-Baker Hospice & Home Health.

Pemi-Baker Hospice & Home Health hopes more families will explore hospice care as a positive and supportive option during a difficult stage of life.

Don’t wait to ask about how our compassionate staff can help your loved ones with the Gift of Hospice Care. To qualify for hospice care patients, families and providers can refer to the program if the patient’s condition is life limiting and the patient is seeking symptom management support at home or in a nursing home/hospital. Our focus is on providing comfort to patients and support to families, with our team available 24/7 to address any concerns. The call is free, and our professionals are ready to assist you! Call us today at 603-536-2232 to learn more.

“I would give your hospice team 10 stars if I could!”

They were truly amazing. We called on a Sunday, and they sent someone out that very afternoon to begin care and stayed by our side as Mom's health declined. We are especially grateful for Alexa, who went above and beyond to attend to our mom's needs and support us as caregivers. She was exceptionally knowledgeable, compassionate and simply an incredible human to be around. We couldn't have done this without her and will be forever grateful for her care. We also want to acknowledge Gretchen and Dr. Saunders, who guided us through some very challenging moments and took the time to truly listen, support us and answer all of our questions. I cant' say enough about our experience with hospice. We are deeply grateful for their care, compassion and support during this time.

“Triple bypass and still going strong!”

I was a mess after having a triple bypass BUT the people at Pemi-Baker helped me so much. Each one were kind, caring, helpful and very sincere with their care. I am so grateful for this service. I did have family members that helped me through this time, but I really needed the love and care that the people at Pemi-Baker gave me. I miss them but am well and in Cardiac Rehab now.

The Physical therapists were amazing!

The physical therapists who visited after my total knee replacement were amazing! The communication was excellent. They phoned in advance to confirm their arrival times. Each PT provider was professional, supportive, and guided me through the appropriate exercises necessary in order for me to be ready to leave my house and continue with physical therapy outside the home. I am very grateful.

“Everyone is so helpful, supportive and kind!”

I had two hip replacements within 10 months and the VA referred me to Pemi-Baker for rehab in my home. They were all amazing! I had PTs and OTs help me exercise and strengthen my hips and legs quickly. They also helped me to acquire the equipment such as canes, leg lifters, sock helpers, and walkers to fit each stage of my healing. Call them they will help you!

“Kind, professional, competent services every step of the way”

Our primary nurse, Fred, was outstanding, and others who filled in were wonderful and a credit to your organization. Fred, you were amazing, not only for mom but for my husband and I as well. I will forever be grateful for your support, wisdom, humor and kindness, all along the end of life journey for mom. I am so deeply thankful that circumstances conspired such that mom was able to die at home, and your role made that time as seamless as it could be made.

The Rewards of Being a Hospice Volunteer

While I was familiar with Hospice for many years, I only have been a hospice volunteer with Pemi Baker Hospice and Home Health (PBHHH) since October 2021.  When I retired, I began searching for volunteer work that would allow me to give back to my community.  A newsletter from PBHHH arrived in my email announcing training for hospice volunteers.  My family had experienced the need for hospice twice, once in Ohio and again in Florida.  The relief my family and I felt when the hospice volunteers arrived was beyond measure.  I want to bring the same kind of assistance to others.  PBHHH given me that opportunity by providing professional training with knowledgeable nurses, doctors, social workers and other health care professionals.  Their guidance has enabled me to meet the challenges of being s hospice volunteer, and I am very glad that I did it.
