It can also be measured by the services we offer, which go above and beyond what typical hospices offer. Unlike many hospice programs, Evercare provides the following services: We offer board-certified hospice and palliative care physicians at each of our program locations. Our medical directors regularly see our patients and are available for direct patient care. We have an unrestricted access program, even for those eligible patients pursuing aggressive treatments like radiation or chemotherapy. Because of our physician involvement, we provide a broad spectrum of medications and treatments for symptom relief.
