Enhancing care through the end of life.
When you or a loved one face a serious health crisis, the decisions can be overwhelming. Some situations may involve a diagnosis that you never expected or an environment that is totally unfamiliar to you.

Turn to Us . . .
We are Journeys Palliative Care Service at St. Anthony Hospital and we are here to help patients and their families make critical decisions. At the same time, we hope to encourage living life to the fullest extent possible – regardless of whether that involves a short or long term process. By joining palliative care with the care your physician is already providing, we hope to offer you a unique measure of comfort and support as the transition of life occurs.

Our Promise . . .

• We will respect and honor your wishes regarding the care of you or your loved one.
• We will give you the chance to ask questions that are important to you.
• We will help make sure you are receiving the care you prefer and the information you need.
• We will be present in a way that is meaningful to you, whatever your situation.
• We will help you make informed choices and provide a true understanding of all appropriate medical options, in hopes of providing dignity as the end of life approaches.

We Can Help . . .
Our palliative care team operates as a multi-disciplinary team that includes a physician, nurse, pain manager, chaplain and social worker. Our team views the patient and family members as a whole. In doing so, we assure thorough communication between all caretakers.
