How does hospice work? At Goodwin Living, our Medicare-certified hospice care services cover pain management and symptom control, personal care, social work services, counseling and spiritual support, and 24/7 on-call nursing support. By choosing Goodwin Hospice over other services, you’ll also receive our additional services, including support from volunteers, pet companionship, end-of-life doulas, massage therapy and more. Most importantly, we work alongside patients and their families every step of the process.
Our local hospice home care services allow patients to stay comfortable in their Arlington home as they receive end-of-life care. That means they won’t have to relocate to another city or facility for treatment. Instead, patients will be able to stay in the lovely waterfront suburb of Arlington, complete with lush greenery, a laid-back atmosphere, and diverse cultural offerings, just across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C.
