Hospice of New Mexico Services

Hospice of New Mexico works together with you and your physician, the hospice team develops a care plan to meet each patient's individual needs. The care plan is adjusted to meet the changing nature of the patient's illness and the needs of family members and other primary caregivers. Our hospice nurses are specially trained in palliative care to relieve pain.

Members of the hospice care team have one goal - to bring comfort to those facing a life-limiting illness. They have special expertise in management of physical, emotional and spiritual needs. Hospice of New Mexico offers:

• 24 hour on-call RN and Physician
• Short term inpatient care
• Consultations with families and patients at no cost or obligation
• Assistance with community resources
• Bilingual staff

Hospice of New Mexico provides a full range of services to help families through the difficult time associated with the loss of a loved one. These services are available along the complex journey; from the moment a life limiting prognosis is given, through the pain of letting go and saying goodbye, and on to the adjustment of a changed life.

Services not covered include treatment to cure a terminal illness as well as treatment for health problems not related to the terminal illness. The focus of hospice care is on comfort rather than cure.
