Grace Hospice has quickly become the standard for providing expert nursing care and counseling services to terminally ill patients and their families. It's no wonder why Grace Hospice is called "The Family's Choice."

Nursing Services
Grace Hospice nurses make regularly scheduled visits to the patient providing expert pain management and symptom control techniques. Throughout the time the patient is under the care of hospice, the nurse keeps the primary physician informed of the patient's condition. Nurses provide the complete spectrum of skilled nursing care. A nurse is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Home health aides provide assistance with the personal care of the patient.

Continuous Care
Continuous care nursing is available if there is a severe episode that requires additional care to manage pain or acute medical symptoms. Our skilled nursing and home health aide services are covered on a 24-hour basis during periods of crisis.

Medical Social Services
Social workers provide assistance with practical and financial concerns as well as emotional support, counseling and bereavement follow-up. They evaluate the need for volunteers and other support services needed by the family.

Spiritual Care
Grace employs a complete psychosocial team to provide spiritual support to patients and families, often serving as a liaison between them and their religious community. Chaplains and other spiritual team members often assist with memorial services and funeral arrangements.

Bereavement
Grace Hospice knows that the loss of someone close to you can be the most stressful event you will ever face. We offer a Bereavement Group which meets every Thursday at 4:00pm at the Grace Hospice offices, located at 6400 South Lewis, Suite 1000, in Tulsa. Individual counseling is also available. To help family members heal, our hospice bereavement counselors are available for at least a year after the death.

Twice a year, usually in the May and November, we celebrate the lives of those who have recently passed on with a memorial service. Please call Grace Hospice at (918) 744-7223 for dates and time.

Grace Volunteers
Grace Hospice volunteers provide practical, emotional, and spiritual support to our hospice patients and their families. They can provide transportation to the doctor or grocery store, household chores, errands, meals, social outings, visits, phone calls, or a time for caregivers to have a break.

Our volunteers participate when they can, and what they do is based on their skills and interests. Volunteers do not offer any medical or nursing care, dispense medications or take the place of a health care professional. If you are interested in becoming a Grace volunteer, please contact the Volunteer Coordinator at (918) 744-7223.
