Palliative Care of the Florida Keys focuses on helping those with life-altering or life-limiting illnesses that are still actively seeking treatment. Palliative care seeks to improve quality of life for patients and their families with a concentration on symptom management, as well as emotional, social, and spiritual concerns.
“We are thrilled to extend our services to the members of the community that need palliative care,” stated Jody Gross, president & CEO of VNA/Hospice. “There has been a gap in care for those with life-altering illnesses that are neither home-bound nor hospice appropriate. We are able to close that gap with Palliative Care of the Florida Keys.”
Palliative Care of the Florida Keys is located at 3426 North Roosevelt Boulevard in Key West. For more information or to set-up an appointment, please call 305-294-8812 or email [email protected].
