Odyssey HealthCare/Hospice - San Antonio

Our mission is to provide comfort care and emotional support to families whose loved one is nearing end of life. We strive to enhance the quality of life during this journey.

Description:
At Odyssey Healthcare, we improve the quality of life for patients facing a terminal illness and provide support for their loved ones.

A team of registered nurses, social workers, physicians, home health aides, chaplains, trained volunteers, and bereavement spearhead the patients' plan of care. They provide palliative care to the patient, that is, care that helps ease pain and discomforting symptoms. In addition, they provide psycho-social and spiritual support for both patients and their loved ones.

History:
Odyssey began in 1996 with the first office in Indianapolis and has grown to over 50 offices in 25 states as of today. According to Webster's dictionary, Odyssey is defined as a "spiritual wandering or quest." Our company operates 24 hours a, 7 days a week.
