Therapy Services

Some individuals who receive hospice care from Stillwater Hospice require assistance in developing new skills needed to perform essential everyday tasks. This often results from a medical condition that impacts their ability to function independently; for example, those who have undergone a stroke may experience considerable difficulty holding a fork or other utensils used during mealtime. In addition, the dedicated medical team may prescribe specific therapies, including occupational, speech-language, or physical therapy, when deemed medically necessary. Ultimately, the overarching goal is to empower patients to complete basic tasks and maintain their overall functional abilities. Additionally, supplementary therapies may be provided to both patients and caregivers by qualified volunteers on a case-by-case basis, further enhancing support and care.
