Hospice Care

One of our specialized services is end-of-life or hospice care. Our goal is to support and guide families through this extremely difficult time while ensuring their loved ones’ final days are filled with comfort, safety, and dignity.
Approximately 1.5 million Americans receive hospice care each year (via Medicare) in order to improve their quality of life when their time is limited.
Our compassionate staff at Blue Water Homecare and Hospice is led by Registered Nurse Jennifer Prescott, who has more than 15 years of experience in healthcare. This hands-on training in end-of-life care is invaluable when helping to manage your family’s journey.
In addition, every member of our team is knowledgeable about the stages of terminal decline and familiar with industry-standard end-of-life protocols for symptom management.
