Hospice is a concept of care designed to provide comfort and support compassionately to patients and their families when a limiting illness no longer responds to cure oriented treatment. Hospice care neither prolongs life nor hastens death, but focuses rather on the quality of life’s possibilities. The goal of hospice is to improve the quality of a patient’s remaining days by delivering exceptional care with an emphasis in comfort, dignity, and compassion.

The world of health care is constantly changing, with new technology, new medications and new treatments supplanting the old. Continuing education benefits clinicians by increasing their knowledge, bt the ultimate goal of continuing education is to benefit the patient. A clinician who is up-to-date educationally can practice more safely and at a higher professional level.

People are more likely to manage their condition goals when they have more accessible healthcare goals instead of focusing only on abstract targets like blood-sugar levels. As a result, that leads to much better health. Numerous studies show that when people have a higher sense of well-being, they have fewer hospitalizations and emergency-room visits. Pacific Point is committed to providing our full array of clinical experience and resources to promote quality of life and well-being for our patients.

Pacific Point is a provider of four levels of care and is committed to providing continuity throughout each service. Continuity of Care is associated with improved preventive and chronic care services, patient and clinical satisfaction, lower hospital utilization, lower costs, and for elderly patients, lower mortality.
