Welcome to Silverado Hospice in South Houston

Personal Attention from An Expert Team in South Houston

Silverado South Houston Hospice exists in the hope and belief that through effective, compassionate care, patients can approach the end of their lives with dignity and comfort in the midst of a caring environment sensitive to their needs. We do this by helping our patients achieve physical and emotional comfort so they can concentrate on living life as fully as possible. Patients are urged to:

• Stay active as long as they are able
• Take part in activities they enjoy
• Do something they have always wanted to do
• Focus on the quality of life because, after all, Hospice is about living

Silverado Hospice Care in South Houston is dedicated to the belief that no one who has a life-limiting illness should die alone, afraid or in pain. Hospice provides peace, comfort and caring to terminally ill people and their families. Hospice treats the person, not the disease.

Hospice is a philosophy of care that assists patients, families, and friends during the final stages of a terminal illness. Hospice emphasizes quality, rather than length of life. Silverado Hospice promotes dignity and emphasizes quality of life for those who choose to die in familiar surroundings with those they love.

At Silverado Hospice South Houston our goals are to:

• Help the patient live each day fully and comfortably by providing effective pain control and symptom management
• Tailor medical, emotional, and spiritual support to the patient and the family
• Comfort the family with personal counseling, resources, and bereavement support
