Why Trellis?
It is so important to know that you will be in good hands when you choose hospice care. You want the peace of mind that you have made the very best choice and that your care will be personalized and tailored to your needs and the needs of your family.
Listen to the voices of people who know, firsthand, what it means to have care from Trellis.
It’s important to ask questions such as:
- are the staff experts in hospice and palliative care?
- will my caregivers be local, from my community?
- what if I need a Hospice Home facility for around-the-clock care?
- are my medications delivered quickly?
- are there volunteers?
- what if music or massage therapy would be helpful?
- how long has the organization been providing care and are they nonprofit?
- do you specialize with my diagnosis?
