Refer a Patient



Help is Here

Healthcare professionals refer their patients to Crossroads Hospice & Palliative Care due to their confidence in the comfort, symptom management, and comprehensive support provided by an experienced and compassionate team of end-of-life care specialists.


We invite you to meet with us to explore how we can provide assistance around the clock, every day of the year, and discuss your patient's specific needs.

How We Support You

Hospice Myths

Hospice isn't what you may think.

Here are common misconceptions about hospice care:

It is NOT giving up. It enables patients to live as fully as possible each day.

It is NOT only for a patient’s final days. Terminally ill patients with a life expectancy of six months or less are eligible for hospice.

It is NOT a place. Hospice can be provided anywhere - a patient's home, nursing home, or hospital setting.

It is NOT an extra expense. Most patients eligible for hospice care are covered by Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance with no direct cost to the family.

 

Crossroads can have the conversation with your patients and their families. We’re available 24/7/365.

Why Crossroads

Your top priority is always a patient’s well-being. So is ours. At Crossroads Hospice & Palliative Care, our philosophy over the last 25+ years has been to provide the best quality of life possible for seriously ill and terminally ill patients. It’s about making life better for those with chronic conditions and celebrating the time that’s left for those nearing the end.

We can have the end-of-life talk with patients and their families. Our thorough approach to care helps avoid unnecessary emergency room visits that can lead to re-admittance.

If you have a patient who could benefit from a hospice or palliative program that will work with you to provide comfort and care, consider referring them to Crossroads Hospice & Palliative Care.
