About Alta
We are a hospice dedicated to providing compassionate end-of-life care. Our team of professionals focuses on enhancing quality of life and providing support to patients and their families. We believe in dignity, comfort, and respect for every individual we serve.
Holistic Hospice Care: Providing Comfort and Dignity in the Final Stages of Life
Our services are designed for patients with a life expectancy of approximately 6 months or less due to an illness.
Having the right kind of support is critical when you or a loved one is facing a life-limiting illness.
Alta hospice services aim to provide the patient with comfort by alleviating symptoms of the disease process to ensure quality of life and dignity during the final stages of life.
Hospice is paid for by Medicare, Medicaid, and most private insurances with zero cost to the patient or family. In the event of no insurance we do offer private pay and we do offer charity hospice coverage for families and patients in the community who do not have the financial resources to pay out of pocket.
The pharmacy works 24/7 and this ensures all medications are delivered to our patients at all times throughout the day. All medications will be delivered directly to the place of services. Durable medical equipment is professionally delivered and installed at the place of service prior to the patient’s arrival to ensure our team and caregivers have the tools to ensure symptom relief. Our DME package includes hospital beds, oxygen concentrators, nebulizers, suction machine, over the bed tables, Hoyer lifts, wheelchairs, feeding pumps, PCA pumps and other individualized equipment that may be needed by the patient.
The hospice team is comprised of an interdisciplinary team who work together to ensure an individualized plan of care for our patients. The team members include; physician’s, nurse practitioners, registered nurses, licensed vocational nurses, hospice aides, Social workers, chaplains and volunteers.
We provide care where the patient considers “home”. This can be in the residential setting, assisted living or the skilled nursing facility.
Eligibility is based on disease processes and the physician’s recommendation for hospice.
