Our Team

Coordination of care is completed in a holistic fashion, designed to meet the physical, spiritual, emotional, and psychosocial needs of our patients. Allied Hospice captures this vision by utilizing an interdisciplinary team of professionals dedicated to our patient's unique circumstances.

Medical Director

 The Medical Director oversees the medical aspects of the hospice program, ensuring the highest standard of care is maintained. They collaborate with the patient's primary care physician and hospice team to create and update individualized care plans.

Director of Nursing

 The Director of Nursing supervises the nursing staff and coordinates the delivery of clinical care services. They play a key role in ensuring that the nursing team provides effective symptom management and high-quality care to the patients.

Spiritual Counselor (Chaplain)

The Spiritual Counselor provides emotional and spiritual support tailored to the patient's and family’s belief system. They may lead prayers, provide counseling, or simply offer a listening ear to help people come to terms with existential questions raised by the end-of-life experience.

Social Worker

 Social Workers assess the social, emotional, and financial needs of the patient and family. They can assist in connecting families with community resources, facilitate family meetings, and provide counseling for emotional stressors such as grief and adjustment to illness.

Health Aide (Hospice Aide)

 Health Aides, often known as Hospice Aides, assist with the basic daily needs of the patient. This can include bathing, dressing, and toileting, as well as basic health monitoring like checking vital signs. Their role is essential for maintaining the patient's comfort and dignity.

Pharmacist

The Pharmacist ensures the appropriate management of medication, including those for pain relief and symptom control. They collaborate closely with the Medical Director and nursing staff to adjust medication plans as necessary.

Volunteer

 Volunteers offer non-medical support to hospice patients and their families. This could range from companionship and running errands to providing respite for caregivers. While they are not involved in administering medical care, their role is critical for enhancing the quality of life for both the patient and their family.

Dietitian

The Dietitian provides guidance on nutritional needs and can help manage symptoms through diet. They tailor advice to individual patient needs, taking into account difficulties in swallowing, digestive issues, or loss of appetite.

Breavement Coordinator

Occupational Therapist

Occupational Therapists help patients maintain everyday skills like feeding, bathing, and dressing, adapted to their physical limitations. Their goal is to promote a sense of dignity and independence for as long as possible.
