Palliative Care

Dixie Palliative Care is a nurse-driven program that provides care for a wide range of patients that are often overlooked by traditional home care programs. Dixie Palliative is ideal for those that need assistance to manage their chronic illnesses and can be provided at any point of the disease process, including while receiving curative treatment. Patients can be admitted directly to Palliative services or transition from Dixie Rehab as the patient’s needs change.

Our goal is to improve each patient’s quality of life. Palliative nurses work side-by-side with patients to identify their individual needs, establish goals, and work closely with their physicians to ensure optimal care is delivered.

Chronic illnesses include cancer, Alzheimer’s, heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), kidney disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis (MS), and many more.
