Comfort Care
Understanding the needs of a person whose ability to speak is limited requires specialized knowledge and skills. Persons with dementia tell us in different ways if they are frightened, in pain, depressed or unsure of a situation. Hospice of the Valley staff members have been trained to assess behaviors for underlying causes so we may provide care to improve comfort and quality of life. We do this by truly knowing the person, adjusting our pace and approach and using appropriate medications.
