Six people, one interdisciplinary team.
Every patient is cared for by all six of these roles together, not any one of them alone.
A decade in hospital-based palliative medicine before founding Capstone Care Health in 2011. Still makes home visits for patients with especially complex symptom management needs.
Oversees all routine and continuous home care visits, and is usually the first clinical voice a family hears when symptoms take a sudden turn.
Helps families navigate the practical weight of a terminal diagnosis — insurance, advance directives, difficult family conversations — alongside the emotional weight of it.
Trained to support people of any faith tradition or none at all, and spends as much time simply listening as offering anything resembling guidance.
Trains and schedules the aides who provide the most frequent, hands-on daily care — often the team members families come to know best.
Recruits and trains the community volunteers who sit with patients, run errands for families, and fill in the quiet gaps a clinical visit schedule can't cover.
