COLUMBUS, Ind. – The Palliative Support Center of Our Hospice of South Central Indiana has welcomed Nurse Practitioner Donna Butler to its medical staff. Palliative Care helps manage the symptoms of a serious illness.
“Donna brings over 10 years of Palliative care experience, which is beneficial to helping us expand the reach of our new Palliative program,” said Laura Leonard, Our Hospice President. “Palliative care specializes in providing patients relief from symptoms, pain, and stress of a serious illness and improves their quality of life.”
Our Hospice of South Central Indiana started Palliative Care in June 2019 and expanded this year by adding an outpatient clinic providing consultations at the second-floor offices of the Hospice Center.
A physician referral is required for Palliative Care for patients with a serious illness. To learn more about Palliative Care, call Our Hospice at 812-314-8120 or email PalliativeCare@crh.org.
