Healthcare Professionals

Home     Healthcare Professionals

Stillwater Hospice values the relationships we have built with healthcare providers and professionals. We likewise appreciate the trust you place in us when you refer one of your patients to us for hospice care.

Most physicians and healthcare providers specialize in healing their patients and helping them overcome medical challenges. Some can find it difficult to discuss end-of-life care with patients and families, particularly as it concerns some of the finer points of hospice services. We invite you to contact us if we may provide assistance with:

  • determining whether a patient qualifies for hospice care
  • ascertaining the appropriate level of hospice care
  • evaluating hospice care for a patient with special or unique needs
  • identifying the expenses, such as medication, medical supplies and durable medical equipment included as part of hospice
  • learning more about the diverse benefits hospice provides patients, caregivers and families

We are also available for healthcare provider referrals 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by phoning 406-702-1742 . One of our professional team members will communicate with you about any clinical needs and make the arrangements to meet with the patient and their family members.

What Hospice Can Provide Your Patients

In a 2016 article from the American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry, it was noted that those surveyed wanted more control over their dying process. This included experiencing emotional wellbeing, having a good quality of life during the dying process, maintaining their dignity and having family present with them. Other studies have demonstrated that up to 80% of Americans have expressed their desire to die at home.

Unfortunately, the majority of adults, including those who received a terminal diagnosis months before, die in a hospital or only receive a hospice referral within a few days or a matter of hours before death.

Referring a patient for hospice care earlier helps alleviate patient concerns about themselves and about their family members. Whether they live in a private residence or a nursing home, it also gives them confidence knowing they will be cared for in a familiar place and be able to make the most of the time they have remaining.
