Admissions to the
Wayne T. Patrick Hospice House
All patients served in our care have been certified by a physician to have a life expectancy of six months or less. Admission to our house is not on a first come, first serve basis. We prioritize patients for admission by assessing their clinical, home, and family/caregiver status. Safety issues in the patient’s home and care giving concerns are considered. A patient that is in a safe and stable environment would not be a high priority for admission if beds are limited. Patients can be admitted to the hospice house directly from their home, or from the hospital or another nursing facility.
