Our Hospice to add new personal care services

Our Hospice of South Central Indiana is announcing a new service to assist those in need and to help them remain in their homes as long as possible.

The personal care service is meant to help provide care that can help clients remain independent. Personal care services can include daily living needs such as bathing and grooming, dressing and toileting, meal preparation, medication reminders, light housekeeping and laundry and transportation to appointments.

Client care for the new program will begin in April.

Julie Davis is leading up the new personal care program. The program will be in addition to existing hospice and palliative care programs provided by the non profit group.

Our hospice has a staff of physicians, nurses, home health aides, social workers, chaplains, volunteers and bereavement counselors, providing care to patients and their families.

Our Hospice of South Central Indiana, based in Columbus, serves clients and their families in 22 counties. There are also offices in Greensburg and North Vernon.
