Complete Care
The ProCare Hospice of Nevada team addresses all of our patients’ physical, emotional and spiritual symptoms. We help patients and their families cope with the many stresses that accompany a life-limiting illness. We also help them manage end-of-life decisions and provide emotional and spiritual support.
Insight
ProCare can help you understand of the nature of your illness, the likely outcome of your current course of treatment, what will happen next, and how you can have the best possible quality of life.
Peace of Mind
At this stressful time in their lives, our patients and their families rely on the expertise of our physicians, the around-the-clock availability of our Registered Nurses and Certified Nursing Assistants, and the aid and compassion of our trained volunteers.
Caring for a hospice patient is a serious responsibility, but is also extremely rewarding. Caregivers need to be ready to help the hospice patient physically, emotionally and spiritually.
ProCare Hospice of Nevada works to assist the caregivers by easing their burden. Our team of healthcare professionals will assist you in hands-on training for proper techniques including, proper transfer, medication administration, bathing, oral care and many more. We want our caregivers to be well-prepared to provide the best care for their loved one, to the best of their ability. Along with comprehensive medical assistance, we also offer volunteer support, respite care, grief counseling, spiritual support and more. Family members are welcome to participate in free support groups and one-on-one counseling any time during the course of the hospice patient’s care or even after the patient passes away. Our experienced spiritual counselors, chaplains, therapists and social workers can also help caregivers, family members and loved ones access community resources.

You can’t properly tend to a hospice patient if you neglect your own well-being. Unfortunately, problems like exhaustion, poor eating habits, lack of sleep, anxiety, frustration and depression are all too common among caregivers.
There are ways you can better care for yourself while you care for your loved one. Start by getting the nutrition and rest you need. Learn to recognize and manage sources of stress.
Accept the help of hospice volunteers, family members — anyone who will lend a hand. Make time for yourself when you can, and if daily caregiving becomes too much, ask for respite care.
ProCare Hospice professionals can discuss these and other coping strategies with you. Call us at 702-380-8300 or through Pahrump at 775-727-0111.
