Back to Hospice Basics: What You Need to Know About the Hospice Team

We’re getting back to the basics of hospice care with Hospice Social Worker Lisa Pahl to talk about who’s on the hospice team and what each person brings to the care of patients and caregivers.  This episode focuses on the core members of the hospice interdisciplinary team (doctor, nurse, social worker, and chaplain) as well as hospice aides (Certified Nurse Assistants) and hospice volunteers.  Each person on a hospice team brings very specific and essential skills to the care of patients, and the support of their families and caregivers.  The best care of a hospice patient includes everyone on the hospice team.  This enables the care of the patient to meet all the needs of body, mind, and spirit.  Connect with Lisa Pahl, owner/creator (thedeathdeck.com)  The Death Deck and End of Life Deck   Interested in purchasing a GrandPad to stay connected with a senior loved one?   Get more information at grandpad.net/thoh GrandPad website: grandpad.net Social Media for GrandPad:   Facebook   Instagram   LinkedIn   YouTube Hospice Navigation Services understands that you need unbiased, expert support to have the best end of life experience possible.  If you have questions about hospice care for yourself or someone you care about, Hospice Navigation Services can help.  Whether you want to connect by phone or video, you can book a FREE 30-Minute Hospice Navigation Session, or a more in-depth 60-Minute Navigation Session for $95.  If you need to troubleshoot the care you’re already receiving, we’re here to answer your questions.  A 60-Minute Navigation Session by video call allows up to 3 family members to get the same expert information at the same time.
