Professionals:
We at Mercy Hospice and Palliative Care know that caring for the seriously ill is a team effort and that we could not do it without your help. We want to make your life easier! With our educational website we make information available for your patients and families 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
We also have resources to help you ! Mercy Hospice and Palliative Care believes in evidence-based practice, thus we have included for you results of recent research findings, including those specific to South Carolina. There are also links to important websites that provide expert guidance or offer continuing education opportunities for you, online or in-person.
Topics in the professional section of our educational website include guidelines and best practices, pain management, cultural competence, advance directives, spirituality in the medical system, and hospice/ltc partnerships —- just to name a few !
Whether you are a physician or nurse, a social worker, an attorney, a member of the clergy, a reporter or a professional working in long-term care, you will find information appropriate to your work. Thank you for being part of the team!
