Texas
Where are you in this?
Looking for palliative care can feel heavy. We will go slowly.
Palliative care can begin at diagnosis. It can sit beside treatment meant to cure or control an illness. Texas does not publish a list of palliative care programs. This site is a starting place.
For me
You can ask about palliative care at any stage of a serious illness. You do not have to wait until treatment ends.
The directory lists 5,444 licensed hospice and home health agenciesin Texas. Many also offer palliative care. The state file does not say which. Search for a name, a city, a county, or a ZIP, then call and ask. A ZIP search also includes hospices that CMS lists as serving that ZIP. That CMS list is not the county of record on the Texas license.
For someone I love
You can help a person you care about look for support. The questions are the same. The pace can be gentle.
Start with a city, county, or ZIP near where they live. The county on a license is only an address of record, not a service area. Ask how far a team will travel.
I just have questions
It is all right to read first. These pages are short, and they are not medical advice.
Look around a metro area
These pages group agencies by the county of the address on the license. That county is not a service area. For a ZIP, search also uses the ZIP codes CMS lists a Medicare hospice as serving.
