How Solace nurses, aides, and support staff care for patients at home and in facilities across Dallas–Fort Worth.
In the Metroplex, hospice is usually brought to a house, apartment, assisted living community, or nursing facility. The Richardson team covers Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington, Plano, Irving, Frisco, McKinney, Garland, and the other cities listed on the service area page.
A nurse visits on a schedule and also comes when symptoms change. Aides help with bathing and personal care. The plan names who to call at night so a family is not left guessing.
Routine home care is the usual level. Continuous home care is for short periods when symptoms need closer nursing attention. General inpatient care is for symptoms that cannot be managed in the current setting. Respite care gives family caregivers a short break. The level changes with the person’s needs, not with a sales package.
You can see how Solace describes these services on the services page.
Hospice does not replace the people who live with the patient. Families still offer presence, meals the person can manage, and the small comforts that a visiting nurse cannot know. The team’s job is to make that role safer: medicines that are clear, equipment that fits the room, and a phone number that is answered.
No. Visits also take place in assisted living and nursing facilities when that is where the patient lives.
The plan of care includes an after-hours number. Ask for it at the first visit and keep it by the phone.
