Frequently asked questions

What is involved with end-of-life care for neurological conditions?

Sometimes, those with terminal neurological conditions can no longer receive home palliative care. These often develop to the point that residents require care full-time. We are committed here at MACG to nursing every individual across all the dimensions of their life.

Do you only treat neurological conditions palliatively?

Neurological conditions are only one class of illness we can palliatively treat. Our team can offer further guidance on this question and answer any inquiries regarding how we treat neurological conditions.

What is the cost of palliative care?

The costs of palliative care reflect a number of factors, including:

  • The choice of home
  • The features and modifications of this chosen home
  • The intensity of required medical care

We can discuss each resident's specific circumstances and the costs that might apply.
