Weekend doctor: Hospice care is not a death sentence

Posted by LizGH on January 26, 2019 - 6:00am

RN, Clinical Educator at Bridge Home Health and Hospice

Many patients and their families decline hospice care because the patient is “not ready to die.” I understand and have empathy toward someone who does not want to die, but receiving hospice care does not cause death. The reality is hospice care enhances many patients’ quality of life so that they are able to enjoy more of their time with family and friends.

In the Bluffton practice of Blanchard Valley Obstetrics and Gynecology
Posted by Fred Steiner on January 24, 2019 - 4:25pm

During a noon break between seeing patients, the Icon caught up with Dr. Molly Senokozlieff, M.D., women’s health specialist. Her office is across from Bluffton Hospital in Blanchard Valley Obstetrics and Gynecology (formerly called Bluffton Woman’s Care).

When in Bluffton she may see 20 patients or more during the day, and her patient load had reached a dozen when we arrived. We talked quickly because one of her patients in Bluffton was in labor.
