When we started Sonder Hospice, our goal was to provide personalized comfort care with the Austin community in mind. We wanted to give Austin residents the option to live out their lives comfortably in their own homes, surrounded by loved ones, with care provided by clinicians who they know and trust. Our personalized approach has led to an overwhelmingly positive response from patients and their families, and we couldn't be prouder to serve our beloved city in this way. Sonder Hospice truly is a hospice for Austin, by Austin. And that's how it should be.
How can we help you?
The Sonder Hospice team’s expertise in managing symptoms, advanced illnesses and neurologic diseases helps avoid the hospital and removes the caregiver burden of trying to manage a loved one’s health. This allows the patient to live their lives in the comfort of their home and provides peace of mind for caregivers and families.
Hospice care has come a long way in the last few years. Patients are now starting hospice sooner to manage their symptoms from advanced chronic care. Once going to the hospital and seeking aggressive care is ruled out of the equation, hospice is a great benefit that covers everything needed to stay at home or in an assisted living or nursing home. The Medicare benefit covers 100% of hospice services, including medical supplies, equipment, medications, and a team of clinicians who have 24/7 crisis care.
Families no longer have to worry about their loved ones going to the hospital or nursing home. They can now get the care they need in the comfort of their own homes or assisted living/ memory care. This extra support can make a big difference for families during a difficult time.
