PeaceHealth Ketchikan Home Health and Hospice

Home Health

PeaceHealth Home Health provides a broad range of personalized clinical and rehabilitative services to patients in the comfort of their own home. Our holistic approach to better health for you or a loved one is designed to give you all the care you need with the comfort, dignity and ease of being in your own home. Patients receive attentive monitoring of complex conditions and health concerns, treatments for acute illness, physical and occupational therapy and pain management.

Hospice

PeaceHealth Hospice provides a comfortable and dignified transition toward the end of life for patients with terminal illnesses. Using expert skills, our entire team works with patients and their loved ones to keep them comfortable and supported. Our specially trained care team serves patients wherever they live — in their own homes, assisted and senior living or skilled nursing facilities.

Volunteer with Hospice

Volunteers make a significant difference supporting patients, their families and our caregivers. Volunteers may choose to work in a direct capacity or indirect capacity, including but not limited to:

1. Patient care volunteers – provide emotional support and practical assistance that enhances the comfort and quality of life for patients and family/caregivers.  These services may include being available for companionship, listening, simply “being there”.
2. Bereavement volunteers – provide bereavement support to family/caregivers.
3. Errands and transportation volunteers – may offer a type of practical support often needed by hospice patients and family/caregivers.
4. Office volunteers – lend their services working in hospice's administrative offices.
