We’re Here for You

You are not alone if you or someone you love is nearing end of life circumstances. ThedaCare Hospice Care will help care for your and your family’s physical, spiritual and emotional well-being, during an often-difficult time.

Quality of life is important, and we encourage people to live their lives fully and joyfully as long as they can. Our hospice team will:

  • Ease symptoms — pain, nausea and breathing issues
  • Provide medication and supplies
  • Care for your emotional and spiritual needs
  • Offer respite care to provide breaks for family caregivers

The Joint Commission for Accreditation for Hospice Organizations has recognized ThedaCare At Home Hospice as “best-in-class” for patients and families.

Home Hospice: Comfort in Familiar Surroundings

Our comprehensive, nonprofit hospice program is designed to bring comfort, dignity, emotional support and hope to those facing a life-limiting illness. We work as partners with patients, families, community care facilities and physicians to ensure we meet all aspects of the patient’s end-of-life health care needs.

When we provide hospice care in a facility, we work with the care facility staff to establish a collaborative plan of care. Our hospice team collaborates with the facility staff, complementing overall skills and expertise to meet the unique needs of the patient and their family. The goal is to provide a comprehensive team that can address any concern.

Cherry Meadows

For optimal comfort, we provide support to patients and families in their own homes whenever possible. For those times when end-of-life care at home is not possible, hospice care at Cherry Meadows offers a serene setting for those who need high-quality and compassionate end-of-life care.

Cherry Meadows is a freestanding, inpatient hospice facility, featuring:

  • 10 private rooms and shared living areas
  • 24-hour, hospice-trained staffing
  • Short-term inpatient care for pain management
  • Respite care to temporarily relieve family caregivers

Cherry Meadows is staffed with registered nurses 24 hours per day. The nurses are part of the hospice team, which includes doctors, social workers, chaplains, volunteers, nursing assistants and bereavement counselors who provide emotional, physical, social and spiritual support for the patient and family.

For more information about Cherry Meadows Hospice, please call (920) 225-7730.
