Overview
Mission
Hospice Care Team (HCT) since 1983 delivers Hope, Help, and Comfort; goal is to maintain the highest possible level of independence within familiar surroundings supported by family and friends. Since 1983, Hospice Care Team (**HCT**) has been delivering Hope, Help, and Comfort. Our hospice today remains true to its original mission. Our goal is to maintain the highest possible level of independence within familiar surroundings, supported by family and friends. Hospice Care Team provides the help of a highly-skilled, professional team of physicians, nurses, social workers, hospice aides, chaplains, and volunteers. The comfort of hospice care provides pain relief and symptom control to the patients as well as encouragement and continued support to the family through active bereavement counseling. This consistent high quality of care has made HCT a pillar of the community in Galveston.
What it reported doing in 2024
Hospice care team (hct) provided routine nursing visits as well as respite, general in-patient and continuous care to patients and their families. Hct offers care from nurses that deliver the management of all physical needs such as paitent and family education related to hospice diagnosis and dying process as well as health training and safety. Hct provides an invdividualized care plan for each patient and the interdisciplinary team has meetings at least every 14 days to make sure continuity of care is maintained. Primary care is usually delivered to the patients home however, in the event there is a family caregiver breakdown then the patient may be placed in a nursing home for up to 5 days for respite to allow the family to recover from exhaustion or for example get well due to an illness. Continuous care is usually for uncontrolled pain, shortness of breath or terminal restlessness. This allows a nurse to be with the patient around the clock.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 99% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
