MEEKER | HopeWest Meeker is more than a healthcare provider; we’re a community dedicated to offering dignity and comprehensive support to individuals and families navigating the complexities of chronic illnesses such as cancer, heart disease, COPD, kidney failure, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and many more.
Our palliative care program is designed around the needs of each individual, ensuring a life lived fully and comfortably. It’s not just about managing symptoms; it’s about nurturing the well-being of patients and their families, addressing emotional, spiritual, and physical needs with a compassionate touch. This approach aims to help patients gain back quality of life so they can focus on healing.
This type of care comes from a remarkable team of:
• Physicians who specialize in pain and symptom management, focusing on patient-centered care;
• Counselors who offer a compassionate ear and expert guidance through the emotional aspects of illness and loss;
• Chaplains who provide spiritual support tailored to the diverse beliefs of those we serve, offering peace and hope;
• Nurses are at the forefront of care, expertly managing medical needs and helping patients understand complex healthcare decisions;
• Volunteers are the heart of our organization, bringing joy, companionship, and practical assistance to patients and their families.
Those experiencing frequent ER visits and hospitalizations due to frailty, pain and complications of their condition can benefit greatly from palliative care services. And, because each person’s journey is unique, services are tailored to meet individual needs. Monthly support can be provided in various settings, including a patient’s home, an assisted living or nursing home and in the hospital.
