Care and Support at Every Stage of Serious Illness
Geriatric
Care
A specialized field of medicine focused on the unique physical, psychological, social, and functional needs of older adults, enhancing their quality of life, independence, and health outcomes through an interdisciplinary approach.
Palliative Care
Focused on relieving symptoms like pain, nausea, and stress associated with serious illnesses, our program helps patients and families understand treatment options, make informed decisions, and improve quality of life.
Hospice
Care
For individuals in the final stages of advanced illness, hospice focuses on comfort, dignity, and quality of life. It provides 24/7 support, managing symptoms and addressing physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs.
We Are More Than Hospice
You may know Gilchrist best for the care we provide people near the end of life. But we offer so much more than hospice. Today’s Gilchrist extends services to individuals with serious illness who need our care and support well in advance of hospice care. We also provide counseling and support before and after the loss of a loved one.
