SMALV offers quality hospice services across Nevada

When you or a loved one faces a life-limiting illness, quality of life becomes even important than quantity. Our Nevada hospice team offers planning and care that can help ease suffering for you and your family during the end stage of a serious illness. 

Types of hospice care offered by Southwestern Medical Hospice

We offer 4 types of hospice care:

  • Routine hospice care provides services to patients wherever they live, be it a private home, a group home or facility. Depending on need, it involves visits by our entire care team. 
  • Respite care is temporary care designed to provide relief to caregivers. It allows patients with serious illnesses to move into an inpatient facility for up to 5 days so your caregiver can have a break.
  • Continuous hospice care provides 24/7 services to patients with severe symptoms where they live. These services are available until you're able to return to routine care.
  • General inpatient care is for serious emergencies. If your symptoms can’t be taken care of where you live, you can receive 24-hour nursing care in a hospital, skilled nursing facility, or a hospice unit or facility.

What you need to know about hospice care

  • Navigating life-limiting illness can place profound stress on you and your loved ones. Hospice care can ease pain and suffering for patients and their families. It can also help by giving peace of mind in knowing your wishes will be honored.
