Palliative Care

Focuses on relief from the symptoms and stress of a serious illness

Dixie Palliative 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.

Dixie Palliative will:

Provide relief from negative symptoms and side effects
Help you understand your disease and diagnosis
Discuss treatment plans and options that match your health goals
Provide support to you and your loved ones
Coordinate with your physicians

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.

If you or a loved one need additional support, ask your doctor to order Dixie Palliative!

Testimonials

“Dixie Palliative Care has been life-changing for my Dad. He was just starting to heal from a fall when Medicare said, “he is all better and doesn’t qualify for any more treatments.” It was true he was a little better, but he definitely needed more ongoing care and medical help. The palliative care team has been so kind and helpful; providing ongoing management of his health and medical conditions, help with organizing and managing his many medications, and ongoing physical therapy to help him retain his balance and mobility. They have been very consistent and caring with my Dad. The nurse always looks him right in the eyes and talks to him, not over or around him. I appreciate all of the professional care and help they are providing for my Dad. I know without the palliative care in his life, he would not be as mobile or as lucid. Thank you so much Dixie Palliative.”

“My son and I take care of my 85 year old mother who has dementia. It is a full time job for the both of us. We are so lucky to have the care team of Dixie Palliative Care to give us the help we need. They are so supportive and always there if you need them. We have come to think of them as family. I highly recommend their services.”
