HOSPICE

Walking on the roof

Although modern medicine is making tremendous advancement in disease management, there are many cases that reach a state of incurability. Death is inevitable but arrives slowly, accompanied by severe pain, discomfort and emotional crisis both to the patient and the family. Globally, hospice is a facility for such end stage patients who do not need active medical intervention for cure.

Vrindavana Institute of Palliative Care is hospice center that offers terminally ill patients comfort and highest possible quality of life in the serene environment of the Hindu holy town of Vrindavan. Pain and physical discomforts are managed by modern medicines, while the patient and the relatives are offered emotional support by counseling and prayers. There is special and personalized care at the time of dying.

Terminally ill patient

Provide Skilled Nursing Attention

Personalized services is the foundation upon which we build our premise.Skilled and capable medical care goes a long way in helping an individual bound to death and limited by life.In this time of need, it is but our ultimate goal to honor their decisions and choices, thus giving them the emotional and spiritual support they desire. Combined with professional advice you can trust, it becomes only natural that you are back in the cradle from your infant years

RNS at bedside

Assist and support the family on a physical, emotional, psychosocial and spiritual level.
Care and counselling goes beyond the person in his last stages, to embrace the family that goes through the same tramuas thrust upon the individual. This type of care provides the patients family with a route to go beyond the physical realities of an advanced conditiion and deal with important emotional and spiritual issues. Simply because,in the end every moment spent together is a precious and infinite memory.
