Hospice of Arizona sets itself apart from other hospices by delivering high quality compassionate care in a timely manner. We are able to do this by hiring the most qualified employees and by continually training employees in patient care. We also set ourselves apart by utilizing point-of-care technology to enable the delivery of real time high quality information throughout our care continuum.

At Hospice of Arizona we know how anxious your patients and their loved ones are when you recommend hospice services for the first time. Our promise is to be attentive and responsive to your patient referrals. Our goal is to make contact with the patient and family within the hour of your call to our referral office and admit eligible patients the same day. Please call (602) 678-1313 to speak with one of our hospice specialists regarding referrals.

Physicians

We know that many physicians like to participate in the development of their patients' Plan of Care and be kept informed of any changes in their patients' condition. We encourage referring physician participation and will actively communicate your patients' condition based upon your requirements using the communication protocols we have established with your office. We encourage you to try our service and see how it is different from other hospice providers.

Long-Term Care Providers

Hospice of Arizona's Long-Term Care service promises have been designed to support your ongoing efforts to provide the care that terminally ill residents need and are entitled to as part of their Medicare and Medicaid Benefits. We know how important it is for you to provide continuity of care for you residents while being fiscally responsible in your operations. We help you keep residents in your facility – through crisis care when appropriate and with the supplemental resources provided under the Medicare Hospice Benefit – such as visits from members of the hospice team, as needed by the patients – any day of the week. We will also contract with your facility for hospice inpatient level of care – if you meet the regulatory requirements and for patients that meet the admission criteria for hospice.

We can also help your facility achieve excellent survey results in all areas of end-of-life care – by taking advantage of programs we've developed and can share with you in the areas of pain management,  advance directives, nutrition/hydration, assuring accessibility of the hospice team when needed by patients and families; whether that is day, evenings or weekends. Work with a partner who understands your business and while your care partner, always acts as a "guest" in your facility:

Hospital Providers

At Hospice of Arizona we know how important it is for hospital discharge planning and utilization review staff to free up needed hospital beds. Further, the discharge of a patient to hospice services is stressful for hospital staff, patients, and family members. Our promise is to provide immediate response to your patient referrals. Our goal is to make contact with the patient and family within the hour of your call to our referral office and to assess the appropriateness of each referral and admit appropriate patients within three (3) hours on the same day they were referred.

We know that a smooth transition from hospital to home is your commitment to your patients. Our admission staff are exceptional at anticipating what is required for a smooth transition for each patient that we accept into our program.We will ensure that all aspects of the transition are coordinated so that the patient is comfortably transferred with the necessary medications, equipment, and medical supplies.
