BridgePoint Supportive Care
A Program of PeopleFirst Homecare and Hospice
When you need support during times of illness or medical crisis, it may seem as if there is no way out and no one to turn to.
You or your loved ones may feel lost and alone. BridgePoint Supportive Care can help by working with you to identify your goals
for treatment, manage symptoms and relieve suffering.
BridgePoint Supportive Care assists individuals facing the challenges of chronic illness. The program offers palliative care,
a type of care focused on providing comfort and promoting quality of life. It can be accessed while still receiving aggressive treatment.
The Staff of BridgePoint Supportive Care:
- works with your doctor to manage pain and other symptoms
- clarifies your goals for care and quality of life and explores treatment options
- assists you in executing advance directives such as a living will
- assists you in navigating the healthcare system to acquire the care you need
- links you with community resources such as home care, medical equipment vendors, financial assistance and other services
BridgePoint Supportive Care consultation visits can be made to a patient living at home, in an assisted living facility
or in a nursing home. Adult patients with any illness may benefit. Visits are made by a Board Certified Nurse Practitioner
with expertise in palliative care and geriatric medicine.
Services provided by BridgePoint Supportive Care are reimbursed by Medicare and many private insurance companies.
To request a palliative care consultation from the staff at BridgePoint Supportive Care, call PeopleFirst Homecare and Hospice at 317-381-0095.
