Namaste Care in Hospice Provides Added Comfort




Namaste   Honoring the Spirit  Touching the Heart

For those who have participated in Yoga, Namaste (pronounced Nah MesTay) is the action of placing both hands together, fingers pointing upward, in front of your chest and accompanying it with a slight bow to another person.  This is a salutation or greeting honoring the person  you are with.  In Hospice Care, Namaste is a unique way of caring for the patient that honors them, their life and their wishes.


Freedom Home Health and Hospice offers Namaste Care in our Hospice program to meet the needs and wishes of those who prefer a more holistic approach to end of life care and comfort.





Namaste Care is provided by an interdisciplinary team of compassionate and knowledgeable health care professionals as well as families and friends.  A holistic approach to care assures that the burdens and benefits of each medical intervention or nursing treatment are weighed so that they support quality of life.  Comfort and Pleasure are goals of Namaste Care.  Every effort is made so that the dying process is a pain-free, easy passing surrounded by people who care.


If you, or a loved one, is facing a terminal illness and are not seeking curative treatment, you may qualify for Hospice Care.  Please call our office today at 801-225-3377 and our staff will help answer any questions you may have concerning care.
