When patients cannot be cared for in their home, they are welcome in one of ours.
Gulfside Hospice currently has two Centers for Hospice Care in Pasco County that provide the highest level of care to patients in need 24 hours a day. Every room is designed to provide a home-like environment and around-the-clock nursing care for patients. The Centers are not just nursing facilities, but large residences furnished like a private home with warm, traditional furniture and room for visiting family members.
The Gulfside Centers for Hospice Care are staffed with nurses 24 hours a day. While at these locations, patients receive regular visits from physicians, social workers, chaplains and volunteers, just like Gulfside’s patients at home. Since our doors are always open, visitors are allowed at the Centers any time. You can schedule a tour of either location by calling 800-561-4883. Or check out our virtual tours and get a preview of what our Care Centers have to offer.
The hospice care team includes board-certified palliative care doctors, registered nurses, licensed counselors, chaplains, home health aides, and volunteers to provide a mix of expertise for medical, emotional and spiritual needs for patients and their families.
The interior of both Gulfside Centers for Hospice Care were designed with the patients and their families in mind, blending expert medical care with the comforts of home. Special features at the Centers to make patients comfortable include:
Private and spacious bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and overnight accommodations for a family member
Round-the-clock skilled nursing care
Emotional and spiritual support for both patients and their families to help bring them peace and comfort
24-hour visiting hours every day of the year for families
Spacious public family areas with kitchenettes and snacks available
Services are paid by Medicare, Medicaid, HMOs, private health insurance and charitable donations. Through community donations, we are able to provide care to all who need us, regardless of ability to pay.
Absolutely! We welcome your phone call and will gladly set up a visit at the Center of your choice with a Gulfside staff member. Please call us directly at 800-561-4883. You can complete the contact form here and a member of our team will reach out to you.
