Call (210) 817-4746Our mission is to spread the message that hospice is not about giving up, but instead gaining more from the time a patient has left.
At Elegant Hospice Care, we are committed to providing compassionate, individualized hospice services that prioritize comfort, dignity, and quality of life. Our interdisciplinary team works together to address each patient’s physical, emotional, and spiritual needs while providing education, guidance, and support to their loved ones.
Hospice provides service to a person and his/her family, wherever they live. This means a patient living in any facility or home can receive specialized visits from physicians, nurses, aides, chaplains, social workers, and volunteers. Elegant Hospice has 24/7 physicians and a dedicated team to discuss the care issues of your loved ones.
Respite care is short-term relief for in-home hospice caregivers. Medicare benefits pay for up to five consecutive days of inpatient care at a Medicare-approved nursing facility, and for patient transport when it meets medical necessity. You can get respite care more than once, but only on an occasional basis.
Hospice respite care enables the caregiver to rest and recover from the demands of daily in-home care.
