The Gift of Hospice Care

July 31, 2024

Pemi-Baker Hospice & Home Health is proud to announce the Gift of Hospice Care, a heartfelt initiative aimed at educating the community about the profound benefits of opting for hospice care early as loved ones age. This initiative underscores the compassionate, comprehensive support available to patients and their families during life’s final stages.

  • Opting for hospice care is a compassionate choice, not a negative one.
  • Selecting hospice care is a loving decision, not something to fear.
  • Embracing hospice care is a blessing, not a burden.

Hospice care provides a holistic approach to end-of-life care, focusing on the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of patients. By choosing hospice care early, patients receive personalized medical care designed to manage pain and symptoms, allowing them to live their remaining days with dignity and comfort.

Families also experience significant benefits when hospice care is initiated early. They gain access to a dedicated team of healthcare professionals, including nurses, social workers, chaplains and volunteers who provide guidance and emotional support. This network of support helps families navigate the complexities of end-of-life care, offering respite and ensuring that they are not alone during this challenging time.Dr. Kristi Saunders, Hospice Medical Director, Pemi-Baker Hospice & Home Health, Plymouth, NH

 

Additionally, early hospice care can lead to better quality of life for both patients and their loved ones. It enables more time to create meaningful memories, facilitates important conversations, and provides peace of mind knowing that compassionate, expert care is readily available day or night.

“Our mission is to ensure that patients and families receive the best possible care and support during one of life’s most natural transitions,” said Dr. Kristi Saunders, MD, Hospice Medical Director at Pemi-Baker Hospice & Home Health. “By choosing hospice care early, families can focus on spending quality time together while we take care of the rest.”

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.

“Your generosity with your time and your loving care is appreciated more than you know.”

Thank you to everyone who played a role in taking care of my mother and giving her the freedom of remaining home while suffering from dementia. Your generosity with your time and your loving care is appreciated more than you know. A special thanks goes to Macayla and Colleen, who visited her on a regular basis, and to Lauren who was helpful in connecting us with state services.

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.
