A caregiver will always want what is best for a loved one.  Yet when a loved enters the end-of-life stage, the substantial increase in his or her care needs can render a caregiver physically and emotionally overwhelmed.  King Manor understands the difficult challenges end-of-life care encompasses; to help ease the burden on caregivers, our Hospice Care program is invaluable.

Under our Hospice Care program, King Manor partners with leading private hospice agencies to provide terminal patients with 24-hour skilled nursing and palliative care.  By coordinating the efforts of our in-house nursing and support staff with the special expertise of hospice care personnel, King Manor ensures that each hospice patient receives exceptional medical attention and comfort enhancement in the most dignified and compassionate manner possible.

Hospice Care is covered under the Medicare benefit. Room and Board is covered by Medicaid or private pay rates will apply.
