Arco, Idaho Hospice Care

Hospice is a form of palliative care provided to those with chronic and life-limiting conditions. Instead of focusing on curing the illness, hospice care emphasizes pain management and comfort as patients approach the end of life. If you or a loved one are experiencing any of the following conditions and treatment is no longer effective, it may be time to consider hospice:

• Renal failure
• Recurrent infections
• Alzheimer’s Disease
• Parkinson’s Disease
• Cancer

We have an amazing team here at BRiO that will work together to provide you with the best care and support possible. Our team consists of nurses, social workers, chaplains, volunteers, billing specialists, coordinators, etc. to help you in whatever area you need. Many of these work directly in hospice care to build patient relationships.

Nurses

We have numerous skilled nurses, whether they are PAs, LPNs, or Nursing Assistants. They will work hands-on with you to build you a custom palliative care plan, usually with medicine and exercises that will best take care of your needs. You can trust them to prioritize your well-being and build a supportive relationship with you.

Social Workers

Our team of social workers can help you through all the logistical and emotional aspects of hospice care. They can help families with grief counseling, finances, food, and other important tasks. They are trained to navigate these specific situations with care and expertise.

Chaplains

If you or your loved ones are religious or spiritual, chaplains can be a major guide through this journey. They can be there to pray with you, listen to any spiritual concerns, and offer peace and comfort. They provide a peaceful presence as patients and their families face this transition.

Volunteers

Volunteers are a huge part of what we do at BRiO. We value community and want to love and support each other. Volunteers are there to do nothing but bring you a little bit of light in a hard time. They can offer those in hospice companionship, have conversations, and do activities with them.

Caregiver Support

Being a caregiver can be overwhelming. Taking care of a loved one in hospice while taking care of yourself and other responsibilities can be a lot of weight to carry. To help lighten the load, we provide educational resources designed to boost your confidence as a caregiver, along with various forms of support to ease the burden on your shoulders.

Here at BRiO, our number one priority is to make sure you feel loved and cared for. Our approach is rooted in empathy and community, driving us to go above and beyond. We participate in community events, fairs, educational booths, offer support groups, etc. to educate and reach people who may need our help.

We also have activities that are accessible on our website. Each month, we put up a coloring page that you can color and bring into our office for a chance to win a prize. We also have a monthly newsletter called The BRiO Buzz where we post updates in our community and our business and build personal connections with those we serve.

We’re here to support the Arco community. Everyone deserves access to the highest quality of care. We are here to provide our Arco family with just that. If you have been thinking about the possibility of hospice care, do not hesitate to contact us and see how we can help!
