Inspirations

Inspirations is a hospice program for pulmonary disease patients and their caregivers.

Inspirations is specifically designed to care for those diagnosed with COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) through all stages of their disease process.

If you are having difficulty managing your disease that may have resulted in an increase in its severity and/or a recent hospital stay, Florida Palliative Home Care can help you get on the road to recovery /maintenance.

    1. Perform health status assessments (vital signs), check respiratory status, hydration, weight and other key health information
    2. Work to improve the patients/caregivers knowledge of COPD and how to effectively manage the disease
    3. Provide education on how to perform the skills necessary for the patient and caregivers to manage the disease process.
