Continuous and crisis care provides intensive, up to around-the-clock nursing support during periods of acute medical distress to prevent hospitalization. Amatus Health Care delivers this temporary, elevated level of care across Dallas and the DFW area when a patient’s symptoms cannot be managed through routine visits. The goal is to quickly achieve symptom relief and stabilize the patient so they can remain comfortably at home.
How It Works: Continuous care interventions may include:
- Up to 24-hour bedside care provided primarily by nurses and aides
- Rapid intervention for acute pain, severe shortness of breath, or terminal restlessness
- Frequent medical assessments and immediate medication adjustments
- Continuous communication with the attending physician
- Intensive education and reassurance for family members
What to Expect:
- Immediate, high-level medical attention during a crisis
- A temporary shift in care intensity until symptoms are fully controlled
- A calm, focused approach to managing complex clinical needs
- Seamless transition back to routine hospice care once stabilized
