Holistic Care

Part of our approach includes delivering holistic therapies. From aromatherapy and Reiki to pet therapy and massage, we incorporate these specialized therapies to enhance the hospice experience. Our compassionate holistic-therapy volunteers are highly trained in hospice care and utilize their specialized skills with patients, families and hospice staff.

Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is the practice of using ethereal plant oils, including essential oils, for psychological and physical well-being. A special blend of oils has been specifically designed just for our patients.

Reiki

A Japanese practice that may be used for the reduction of stress and promotion of relaxation and healing. Reiki is a type of energy work in which perceived universal life force (energy) can be accessed by the practitioner and transferred to the patient through the “laying on of hands.” Reported benefits include sense of well-being, relaxation, pain management and comfort.

Continuous Care

PATH Program

When coping with a serious illness, there are many decisions that may seem overwhelming. The Ascend Health PATH Program is designed to help support patient and their loved ones to help make things more manageable.

Whether a patient is new to us or someone we have been caring for regularly, we understand that there may be times when a decision is made to postpone or stop hospice care services. This does not mean our relationship needs to end. This may be the very time when families have additional questions or concerns that we can help with.

Our trained hospice staff can help provide the guidance needed. Our team will stay in contact with you through this time of transition. Whether it is to discuss changes in an individual’s condition, connecting you with community resources, or simply reaching out to offer encouragement — we will be there.
