Daily Bread
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
1 Corinthians 13:1
Baptist Trinity Home Care & Hospice understands that people face significant health care challenges when diagnosed with a chronic condition. We are pleased to introduce a program designed to help patients cope with the life changes associated with chronic illness.

Our Pathways program helps patients develop their own pathway by giving them the tools and assistance to face each challenge. Our program supports patients by helping them anticipate and plan for the physical, emotional and spiritual changes they may face as their condition progresses.

The goals of the program include:
  • Supporting patients with chronic conditions by affirming their life goals and helping them maintain or enhance their quality of life
  • Promoting a holistic, interdisciplinary care process while providing home care to the chronically ill
  • Using palliative care principles to provide home care to patients with chronic conditions
  • Providing emotional support and education for patients facing end-of-life issues

The clinical practice model includes the following key components:
  • Life assessment with input from patients on their life goals and wishes
  • Interdisciplinary care model
  • Proactive symptom management
  • Self-management skills and coping strategies

All outcomes are measured to evaluate the effectiveness of the program including:
  • Patient assessment of his or her quality of life
  • Demonstration of symptom self-management
  • Advanced care planning

For more information, please call (901) 767-6767.
