Hospice care usually takes place in the home, but may may also be provided in a nursing home, hospital, and the Hospice Care Center at St. Joseph Hospital. Patients receive skilled, multidisciplinary care. The interdisciplinary team consists of the patient's doctor, a registered nurse, social worker, chaplain, bereavement counselor, home care aid and volunteers.
