FLORENCE SC – The McLeod Hospice team in Horry County is led by Associate Medical Director Dr. Jason Harrah. Board certified in Hospice and Palliative Care, Dr. Harrah has more than ten years of experience caring for Hospice patients. The team also includes Renee Anderson-Williamson, the Patient Care Coordinator, who has 11 years of Hospice experience.
“Our mission is to provide services that not only relieve physical symptoms such as pain, but also the emotional and spiritual pain of the patient and their family that often accompanies a terminal illness,” explains Dr. Harrah. “Our primary purpose is to help patients live with their illness while maintaining the highest quality of life for as long as possible. In addition, hospice care is provided in the home, enabling families to remain together in peace, comfort, and dignity.”
The goal of McLeod Hospice is to allow patients with terminal illnesses to spend their final months at home, in familiar surroundings, with their family and friends nearby. Understanding that this is not always possible, McLeod Hospice also cares for patients who are hospitalized or living in long-term care facilities. In addition, McLeod provides inpatient care for acutely ill patients at the McLeod Hospice House in Florence.
The new office in Horry County is located at McLeod Seacoast, 4000 Highway 9 East in Little River, South Carolina. To contact McLeod Hospice, please call (843) 366-2028.
