Fall 2015 - Coastal Hospice

Her mother also appreciates the vital services she receives from “That’s all what it’s about.” hospice. “She knows she’s being well taken care of, and they always Coastal Care Choices removes barrier to care A Message from President Alane Capen We are very proud to announce Medicare has selected Coastal Hospice for a new model program that will allow many patients to receive the supportive care typically provided by hospice and continue treatments to cure their disease at the same time. Beginning January 2016, Coastal Hospice will launch “Coastal Care Choices,” designed to improve care for people with cancer, HIV/AIDS, COPD or congestive heart failure. Patients no longer have to make the difficult choice between treating their disease and receiving comfort care. Support is a phone call away 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Patients can now stay in their own homes, determine their own health care goals and improve their quality of life. On July 20, 2015, Health and Human Services Secretary, Sylvia M. Burwell, announced Coastal Hospice’s selection for this model. HHS selected only 140 hospices across the country to test the model for a period of five years and expects as many as 150,000 eligible Medicare beneficiaries will benefit from the flexibility of care. The model is part of a larger effort at HHS to transform the nation’s health care system to deliver better care, spend taxpayer dollars in a smarter way, and put patients in the center of their own care. To qualify for the Coastal Care Choices model, individuals must be diagnosed with cancer, HIV/ AIDS, COPD or congestive heart failure. They must be living in a traditional home, not a nursing home Continued on Page 2 Page 2 | Coastal Hospice News Ask Dr. Waris Medical Director Ask Dr. Waris is a regular feature of Coastal Hospice News. Send your questions to ebean@coastalhospice.org or write to Coastal Hospice, Ask Dr. Waris, PO Box 1733, Salisbury, MD 21802-1733. All questions become the property of Coastal Hospice and may be used in future publications. Having end-of-life discussions in nursing homes is critical Long-term care facilities — like nursing homes and assisted living homes — offer their residents much needed care and services. Unfortunately, they often get bogged down when it’s time to discuss what their patients want to happen when they approach the end of their life. This is a very difficult conversation to have but a very important one. In July, a leading advocate for patient-centered end-of-life care, Dr. Ira Byock, visited Salisbury and told a group of doctors and nurses, “The fundamental nature of illness isn’t medical. It’s personal. The best care for a person has to be consistent with their personal values, preferences and priorities. “There are worse things than having someone you love die; there’s having someone you love die badly,” he said. “We ought to be talking about being able to die with a sense of well being.” What Dr. Byock is saying is that we need to talk about what we want at the end of our life and not be afraid of the conversation. In long-term care facilities, there are several barriers that keep end-of-life conversations from happening. Family members may live a distance away and not be aware of the medical condition of their loved one. Staff may regard this as a medical situation, expecting their doctors to handle it, while physicians may view dying as an emotional issue, expecting social workers and chaplains to deal with it. The patient may be receiving aggressive medical treatments even though they may have a low likelihood of success. Or the family may be arguing among themselves about what the best next step is for Mom or Dad. It’s important to ask the patient — before it’s too late — “What do you want your end-of-life experience to be?” Most will say they want a peaceful, pain-free death, surrounded by those who love them, rather than being in a hospital connected to machines and tubes. But this is something we must ask and then put in writing. Coastal Hospice has a team of palliative care consultants who are now working at Genesis, Deer’s Head and Anchorage nursing homes. This team has experience in getting the end-of-life conversation started, guiding the discussion and offering suggestions for future care. Continued from Page 1 Dr. Ira Byock answers questions from a nurse during his talk about end-of-life care at PRMC on July 23. Coastal Care Choices or assisted living facility. Patients must be enrolled in Medicare Parts A, B and D and meet hospice eligibility requirements under the Medicare or Medicaid Hospice Benefit. They must not have elected the Medicare or Medicaid Hospice Benefit within the last 30 days prior to their participation in the new program. There are a few additional restrictions that apply. The patient’s primary care physician will make the initial recommendation to the program and remain active in directing treatment and care. The care provided will be specialized, focusing on providing patients with relief from the symptoms, pain and stress of illness. The goal is to improve quality of life and provide greater coordination of services among all providers involved in the person’s care. Like hospice, Coastal Care Choices will take a team approach that becomes an extra layer of support. Once the patient is enrolled in the model, a team of registered nurses, aides, social workers and chaplains are available to help. Patients are now in charge of directing their own health care. They can leave the Coastal Care Choices program or can enter full hospice care at any time. Watch for news when the program will be available in your county. Noted physician/author shares end-of-life message In July, Coastal Hospice along with MAC, Inc., The 50+ Network and the Richard A. Henson Cancer Institute at PRMC invited Ira Byock, M.D. to speak to the local health care community about his compelling end-of-life care message. Dr. Byock is a leading palliative care physician, author and public advocate for whole-person health care and improved end-of-life care. He visited Salisbury on July 23-24 for a pair of presentations. He presented his topics, “The Best Care Possible: Clinical and Cultural Leadership for the 21st Century,” during a dinner at PRMC, then addressed 35 PRMC physicians and guests during grand rounds with “What Are Doctors For? The Physician-Patient Relationship through the End of Life.” Dr. Byock’s visit was sponsored by the partner organizations and grants from the John B. Parsons Foundation, the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore and the Medical Staff of PRMC.
