Let’s clear something up
Hospice isn’t giving up. It’s choosing comfort.
Hospice is a Medicare benefit for someone whose doctor expects six months or less if the illness runs its usual course. Choosing it moves the goal from curing the disease to caring for the person.
“Hospice means we’ve stopped trying.”
It means the goal changes from curing the illness to controlling what it does to someone. Pain, breathing, nausea, fear. Families routinely tell us their person felt better in the first week than they had in months.
“Hospice is a building you go to.”
Almost all of our care happens where the person already lives. A house, an apartment, a daughter’s spare room, an assisted living apartment, a nursing facility. We come to you.
“It’s too early to call.”
The most common thing families say afterward is that they wish they had called sooner. There is no cost to a conversation, and if it is genuinely too early we will say so.
“We’d have to give up our own doctor.”
Your physician can stay involved and work alongside our medical director. Nothing about hospice requires cutting off a doctor your family already trusts.
What we bring to the house
One team, built around one person
Every plan of care is written for the individual, not pulled off a shelf. Here is what the team looks like in practice.
Skilled nursing
Regular visits to manage pain, medication, wounds, and whatever the illness is actually doing that week.
Hospice aide
Bathing, dressing, and personal care, done with dignity. Often the visit families come to depend on most.
Medical social work
Benefits, paperwork, family conversations, and the practical problems nobody warns you about.
Chaplain / spiritual care
Available to any faith or none. Presence, not preaching.
Bereavement support
Grief support for the family, continuing after the death, not ending at it.
Volunteer services
Company, errands, and a few hours of relief so a caregiver can leave the house.
Physical / occupational / speech therapy
Focused on comfort, safety, and keeping the abilities that still matter to the person.
Levels of care
Care that adjusts to what’s needed
Ability Hospice provides all four Medicare levels. As needs change, the level of care changes with them, and arranging that is our job, not yours.
Routine home care
The day-to-day level. Your team comes to you, wherever you call home.
Continuous home care
Extended nursing hours at home during a crisis, so you do not have to move.
Inpatient respite care
A short stay at local skilled nursing facilities across our service area so a family caregiver can rest.
General inpatient care
Short-term care at local skilled nursing facilities across our service area when symptoms need round-the-clock management.
How it starts
Three steps, and we do most of the work
Nobody expects you to know how any of this works. That is what we are for.
You call, or a doctor refers
Anyone can start this. A patient, a daughter, a neighbor, a hospitalist, a facility nurse. No referral is needed just to ask questions.
We come out and explain everything
We visit, answer questions in plain language, and confirm eligibility and coverage before anyone signs anything.
Care begins, often the same day
Refer today and we admit within 24 hours. Equipment and medication get arranged by us, not by you.
The people who show up
A local team, not a call center
We are based in Beaumont and we staff these four counties ourselves. The nurse who picks up at midnight works for the same small agency that was in your living room that afternoon.
Where we go
Serving four counties, at home
Private homes, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing facilities. We cover Jefferson, Orange, Hardin, and Liberty counties in full, including the rural communities that get told a service does not reach them.

Orange County

Coverage
What we accept
For most families on Medicare, the hospice benefit covers the care, the visits, the medications related to the illness, and the equipment. We will confirm your specific coverage before care begins.
