For hospital discharge planners
Safe discharges to hospice, without the scramble
You need a hospice that answers the phone, moves fast, and doesn't bounce patients back. Our admissions team works discharges every week: benefits verified, orders obtained, equipment delivered — often before the patient leaves your building.
A discharge-day timeline that works
- Morning: you call or send the referral packet. We verify benefits and contact the family within the hour.
- Midday: orders obtained from the certifying physician; DME ordered for delivery to the home.
- Afternoon: patient travels home; our RN meets the family there to complete admission and the first comfort assessment.
- That night: the family has a 24/7 number and a plan — and your readmission risk just went down.
Families deciding quickly at the bedside often want the basics first — our hospice overview, costs page, and first-48-hours guide are written exactly for that moment.
