Top-Notch End-of-Life Services
End-of-life care is a delicate process that requires empathy and expertise. According to the Institute on Aging, in-home end-of-life care allows individuals to be guided down a peaceful path by professionals who understand both medicine and people. This empowers patients to make decisions about their lives, including where they want to spend their final moments, and to celebrate life’s journey in a unique and dignified manner.
At Serenity Hospice Care, we are committed to providing this level of excellence in our end-of-life care services. We focus on maintaining patient dignity and improving quality of life, rather than just treating the disease. This patient-centered approach allows us to deliver superior end-of-life services that meet the unique needs and preferences of each patient.
Personalized In-Home Care
In-home hospice care provides comfort and support to individuals facing life-limiting illnesses in their own homes. This approach is preferred by 70% of patients, as it allows them to go through the end-of-life process in a familiar environment (Three Oaks Hospice).
Our in-home hospice care services at Serenity Hospice Care are designed to meet this need. We offer personalized care solutions, focusing on symptom management, ensuring patient dignity, and improving the quality of life. We also relieve stress for family caregivers, providing temporary respite care and reducing the need for travel to and from hospitals.

In-Home Hospice Care Benefits
At Serenity Hospice Care, we believe everyone deserves compassionate, quality care right at home. Our in-home hospice services offer not just medical support, but also emotional and psychological help for patients and their families. Here’s why in-home hospice care might be the best choice for you.
Home Sweet Home
Staying at home during the end-of-life journey brings comfort and peace. According to Three Oaks Hospice, 70% of patients prefer to spend their final days at home. The familiar surroundings can make a huge difference in their well-being.
Being at home means patients can stick to their routines and enjoy their favorite activities, which can greatly improve their quality of life. Plus, it eliminates the hassle of traveling to and from hospitals, making it easier for family members to be close by during this sensitive time (Institute on Aging).
Emotional Support for Families
In-home hospice care isn’t just about the patient; it’s about the family too. Our team provides essential emotional support, helping families navigate this tough period with more ease.
We also offer respite care, giving family caregivers a much-needed break. This allows families to spend quality time together without the added stress of caregiving duties (Three Oaks Hospice).
The comfort of home can make the end-of-life process more peaceful, allowing patients to be surrounded by a lifetime of memories in their final days (Institute on Aging).
Choosing in-home hospice care from Serenity Hospice Care ensures that patients and their families get the best support during this important time. For more details about our services and hospice care options, visit our website or contact us directly.
Meet Our Caregivers
At Serenity Hospice Care, we know that top-notch in-home hospice care starts with the right people. Our caregivers are not just qualified; they’re dedicated to making every moment count for our patients.
Skills and Heart
Our caregivers aren’t just skilled—they’re passionate about what they do. They bring a cheerful attitude, even on tough days. According to Senior1Care, this passion is what sets a great caregiver apart.
We offer “private-duty” care through certified caregivers trained as companion caregivers, home health aides (HHAs), or certified nursing aides (CNAs). Training varies by state, but all our caregivers go through rigorous training and continuous professional development to ensure they provide the best care possible.
Our caregivers work in various settings, including private homes, rehab facilities, assisted living communities, outpatient clinics, nursing homes, and hospitals. This flexibility allows us to meet the unique needs of each patient with our hospice care options.
Health and Strength
Our caregivers are not just skilled and passionate—they’re also physically fit and healthy. As Senior1Care points out, caregivers need to handle tasks like lifting and transporting clients, which requires a good level of physical fitness.
We prioritize our caregivers’ health because it directly affects the care they provide. Regular health checks, wellness programs, and support systems keep our caregivers in top shape.
When you trust us with your loved one’s care, you can be sure our caregivers are up to the task. We’re committed to offering exceptional in-home hospice care that focuses on comfort, dignity, and peace. For more details about our services and how we can support you and your loved ones, check out our guide on end of life planning.
Levels of Hospice Care
At Serenity Hospice Care, we offer different levels of hospice care to make sure patients get the right kind of help they need. We know every patient is different, so we adjust our services to fit their specific needs and wishes.
Routine Home Care
Routine home care is the most common type of hospice care. It’s perfect for those who want to stay in their own home during their final days. Our team of nurses, aides, and social workers will visit the patient’s home to help with pain management, symptom control, emotional support, and therapy services, among other things (Hospice Care Options).
This care focuses on keeping patients comfortable at home with their family. Our team makes regular visits to ensure the patient’s comfort and well-being. Long-term hospice care is also available for families who want to keep their loved ones at home as long as possible. For more details about routine home care, check out our page on hospice care options.
Inpatient and Continuous Care
Sometimes, patients need more care than can be provided at home. In these cases, inpatient and continuous care options are available.
Inpatient care happens in a hospital, offering 24/7 medical supervision and access to hospital equipment like dialysis machines or ventilators. This care is usually for when symptoms are too tough to handle at home. The goal is to manage symptoms so the patient can go back to routine home care as soon as possible (VITAS Healthcare).
Continuous care is like routine home care but with added 24/7 help from our medical team. Some hospices, including us, may also offer treatments like acupuncture or massage therapy along with continuous care to ensure the patient is as comfortable as possible.
Choosing between routine home care, inpatient care, and continuous care depends on the patient’s condition, needs, and preferences. At Serenity Hospice Care, our mission is to provide compassionate, personalized end-of-life care that respects each patient’s journey and prioritizes their peace and dignity.
Hospice Care Options
At Serenity Hospice Care, we get it—choosing end-of-life care is a big deal. We offer different hospice care options to fit what each patient and their family needs. Whether it’s long-term care at home or outpatient care services, we’ve got you covered.
Long-Term Care at Home
Long-term in-home hospice care is all about keeping patients comfy while they stay at home with their loved ones. Our team of nurses, aides, and social workers drop by regularly to help with pain, discomfort, and emotional support. We also offer therapy services when needed.
Our in-home hospice care isn’t tied to one spot. We can provide care wherever the patient lives—be it their own home, a family member’s place, an assisted living facility, or a nursing home. Sometimes, short-term hospice services are available during a hospital stay, and then we switch back to home care once the hospital stay ends.
According to Three Oaks Hospice, 70% of patients prefer to spend their final days at home. Our long-term in-home care services make this possible by offering care in a familiar setting, making independent living easier, and improving quality of life during serious illness.
Outpatient Care Services
Outpatient hospice care lets patients stay at home while getting hospice care, without needing to stay in a hospital or clinic. This is great for frail patients or those who don’t want to travel daily.
Our outpatient services mix the comfort of home with the professional care from our hospice team. We manage symptoms, ensure patient dignity, and focus on improving quality of life rather than curing the disease.
Whether you choose long-term in-home care or outpatient services, our goal at Serenity Hospice Care is to offer top-notch support and compassionate care to those facing life-limiting illnesses and their families.

Getting Hospice Care
At Serenity Hospice Care, we’re all about making our services easy to access for everyone who needs them. This means giving you the lowdown on insurance coverage and how to get started with us.
Insurance Coverage
Paying for hospice care might be easier than you think. Both Medicare and Medicaid cover in-home hospice care. Private insurance plans also often include palliative care benefits (Three Oaks Hospice).
Most hospices, including us at Serenity, follow the Medicare Hospice Benefit, which has been around since 1982 (Verywell Health).
Here’s a quick look at what’s usually covered:
| Coverage Type | Services Covered |
|---|---|
| Medicare and Medicaid | In-home hospice care |
| Private Insurance | Palliative care benefits |
Medicare-certified hospices must offer nursing, pharmacy, and doctor services 24/7 for home hospice care. If there’s an emergency, call the hospice first instead of 911 to keep your hospice benefits intact.
For more details on costs, check out our article on hospice care costs.
How to Get Started
To start using our in-home hospice care, you’ll usually need a referral from your primary care doctor. This helps confirm the need for hospice or palliative care and activates your insurance benefits.
Once we get the referral, our team at Serenity will do an initial assessment to figure out what kind of care you need. We’ll then create a personalized care plan, working closely with your primary care doctor.
In-home hospice care focuses on making life better for people with serious illnesses and their families, right in their own homes. We aim to manage symptoms, maintain dignity, and improve quality of life rather than trying to cure the illness (Three Oaks Hospice). Learn more about our services at Serenity Hospice Care.

We believe these moments should be filled with peace and happiness, surrounded by cherished memories, making the end of life a gentle and fitting experience (Institute on Aging).

Celebrating Life’s Journey
At Serenity Hospice Care, we believe end-of-life care is more than just medical attention—it’s about honoring the unique journey of each individual. Our in-home hospice services aim to empower patients in their final days, ensuring they experience dignity and comfort.
Empowering End-of-Life Choices
In-home care lets aging adults and their families navigate their final days with the help of our dedicated, professional team. Our staff is skilled in both medical care and understanding people. This care empowers older adults to make decisions about their lives, including where they wish to spend their final moments.
According to the Institute on Aging, these choices should be celebrated as a reflection of the unique individuals they are. At Serenity Hospice Care, we believe every end-of-life journey is special and deserves respect and honor.
While hospitals offer hospice care, choosing to receive care at home provides a more personalized and comfortable experience. This allows patients to maintain control over their environment and the nature of their care, a key aspect of our hospice care options.
Ensuring Dignity and Comfort
Our mission at Serenity Hospice Care is to make our patients’ final days peaceful and dignified. Our in-home hospice services provide comfort in familiar surroundings, surrounded by a lifetime of memories.
The Institute on Aging highlights that in-home care can make the time of passing a sweet and fitting experience, a sentiment we fully embrace at Serenity Hospice Care.
Providing care in the comfort of one’s own home helps reduce anxiety and stress, allowing for a more peaceful transition. Our dedicated caregivers offer not just medical support but also emotional support, ensuring our patients and their families feel cared for and comforted throughout the journey.
Choosing the right provider for end-of-life services is a big decision. At Serenity Hospice Care, we honor the individuality and choices of our patients, offering compassionate and personalized in-home hospice care that celebrates life’s journey and respects its end.
