Murray Hospice Care Programs

Silverado Hospice patients and families experience Love, Innovation, Family and Engagement through our special hospice programs.

Aroma Therapy: Response to smell can engage conversation about what memories are evoked, how that particular aroma makes a patient feel, or even what images a new smell conjures! Different scents are used to help relax, rejuvenate, or simply engage a patient.

Massage Therapy: Everyone needs to be touched. The need is no less in terminal patients. There are special methods of touch that can enhance the experience, and lessen any discomfort. Massage therapy is a well-established method of stimulating circulation, easing tension and pain, and assisting relaxation.

Go Wish: A program whereby the hospice patient chooses specific things that they would like achieve during their End-of-Life journey. The Hospice team assists and facilitates the patient and family in realizing a dream large or small. This could be reconnecting with a loved one and visiting a special place once more.
