The right time for hospice care?

We often hear from our Missouri-area hospice families that they wish they’d contacted us for hospice sooner. It’s important to realize that hospice is not giving up. It's about fully embracing the time that’s left by making the patient and their family more comfortable and able to focus more on appreciating each other’s company.

Reasons to consider hospice now, versus waiting until the final days:

Care from all angles: While managing pain and discomfort is a vital aspect of hospice care, Crossroads also provides invaluable emotional and spiritual support.
Support for the family as well: Crossroads Hospice in Missouri goes beyond the patient, to also provide emotional support and grief counseling for the family. We are also there to answer any questions and help with any decisions.
Improved quality time: The most important benefit of hospice care is that the patient gets to be in their own home, with treatment for their pain and discomfort, able to have better quality time with their family.

The right time for palliative care?

Palliative care differs from hospice in that it’s not limited to end-of-life situations. Palliative care is in fact suitable for anyone of any age who happen to have a long-term illness.

Here's how palliative care can improve daily life:

Managing the effects of chronic conditions like heart disease, cancer, and ALS
Alleviating treatment side-effects, such as chemotherapy-induced nausea
Complementing curative treatments with a focus on quality of life — meaning palliative keeps you comfortable while doctors work toward a cure

We will care for your loved one with respect and dignity. We care more, and it shows.

See it in our unique staffing model — prioritizing time with the patient.

Statistics show that Crossroads spends more care with patients than the national average for hospice providers.

“If you had one perfect day, what would it look like?” As one example of how we go above and beyond, we work with local businesses to make the answers to this question a reality.
See it in our expectations — from ourselves and what you should expect from us.

We raise the bar. And then raise it again. We fully appreciate how important our jobs are, and how we have the ability to impact this trying time. We take that responsibility seriously, and will be here for you before, during, and after.
