Hospice care is covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and most private insurance companies. The benefit covers services, equipment and medications related to the terminal diagnosis.

​

Hospice does not mean you are giving up hope. In fact, many patients and families wish they would have received hospice care sooner.

Extra Services and Programs

Not all hospices offer complementary

music and massage therapy, but we do.   

We provide these services because they are proven to

reduce pain and provide relief of symptoms. 

It makes our patients more comfortable and

​Music is magical. It has a way of making us feel better. Those favorite songs will bring a smile to our faces as we sing along or tap our toes. For hospice patients, music therapy is pure gold, especially if the patient is like 93-year-old Carole Ford of Mays Landing. A former church organist, making music brightens her mood. "She has a musical ear," said Karen Melita, music therapist for NJHealth Hospice, to that Carole responds with a huge smile and a hit to a high note on her xylophone. (listen to her music on the link below). She says her favorite thing about music therapy is making "it happen."
