Levels of Care

Home Care
Care is provided by hospice team members in the patient's or family's home or in a nursing care facility.

General Inpatient Care
Care is given at a contractual facility for patients who are needing pain control or acute/chronic symptom management.

Inpatient Respite Care
Under the direction of the hospice plan of care, up to five days of respite care at a contractual nursing facility will be paid by hospice. This benefit may be used to give the family caregiver a rest and the patient does not need to meet acute care standards.

Continuous Home Care
Passages offers 24-hour care to ensure the patient and family are supported during a period where death may be imminent. Continuous care is provided by a combination of nursing and certified nursing assistant staff.
