Healthcare | Hospice & Palliative Care
CC Young Hospice care focuses on the quality of life for patients who are experiencing an advanced, terminal illness. Hospice provides compassionate, loving care from a team of professionals working together to manage symptoms for patients so they may live as fully and comfortably as possible. Hospice is not intended to hasten or postpone death, but manages symptoms of the disease so the end of life is spent with dignity and quality, surrounded by love and family. The patient and family are the center of care. They make the decisions to guide their own path
Palliative care is offered in hospice care, but it also can be given separately from hospice. Palliative care is sometimes called supportive care, symptom management, pain control, or comfort care. Most often it is used for those who are still pursuing aggressive and curative treatment; but have bothersome symptoms that require expert management.
Our Hospice care is available wherever a person calls home – on or off campus. It is a benefit covered 100% by Medicare and Medicaid and includes the services listed here. For more information, please contact us by calling (214) 841-2825.
The CC Young hospice inpatient unit is located on the campus of CC Young in The Vista, the state-of-the-art skilled nursing and assisted living building. With GIP and palliative care services, patients and their families will find comfort in the extra layers of clinical, psychosocial, and spiritual support in this high-acuity, comfort – focused setting.
CC Young has assembled an expert interdisciplinary team to care for patients whose symptoms can no longer be managed at home, have medically complex needs, or have experienced a sudden decline in condition and need round-the-clock skilled nursing care. Our GIP unit will help get symptoms under control to experience a better quality of life at end of life.
