Elara Caring
Elara Caring is a Medicare-certified hospice provider serving Kokomo, Indiana and surrounding areas. A Medicare-certified hospice provides comfort care and support services to patients with terminal illnesses and their families. Hospice care focuses on quality of life rather than curative treatment.
Hospice care is available to patients whose physician certifies they have a terminal illness with a life expectancy of six months or less if the illness runs its normal course. Patients may receive hospice care at home, in a hospice facility, nursing home, or hospital.
Medicare-certified hospices must provide all four levels of hospice care: routine home care, continuous home care for periods of crisis, general inpatient care for symptom management, and inpatient respite care to give caregivers a break. Care is provided by an interdisciplinary team including physicians, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and trained volunteers.
Medicare covers hospice services with no cost to patients for most services, including medications for symptom control, medical equipment, and 24-hour access to care. For more information about hospice benefits, visit Medicare.gov. Compare hospice providers at Medicare Care Compare.
Quality data and provider information are updated periodically by CMS. We recommend verifying current information at Medicare Care Compare.

Sadly my father passed today. He had been under the care of Elara for around six months... maybe longer. The care that he received was excellent from what I experienced. The nursing staff was always courteous and willing to answer all of our answers when they were asked. They were always caring. The Chaplain was also essential and visited quite a bit to check up on my father and mother. Our family really could not ask for more. And most of the staff traveled from an hour or more away. Life happens at it's own pace and I know that it's hard when the end comes, but this company really made a difference. Thank you for your service! May God bless you all!
Horrible customer service! Scheduling of employees is horrendous.. nobody seems to know what is going on. Seems like there is poor to no communication between employees then employees seem eager to throw each other under the bus. Employees double scheduled for visits or not showing up, not always calling the day before (as per THEIR policy) to schedule a visit and just showing up asking if we're home because they are sitting in front of our house. Scheduling requests were not passed on. For a company that is supposed to help people they sure are frustrating. And I understand the business because I am retired from the healthcare industry.
This company is hands down the best hospice company! The staff is full of compassionate and caring professionals! They have 24/7 nursing staff available to support patients and family. I would very much recommend their services!
Their staff were kind , compassionate , and knowledgeable in caring for my dad, and 2 uncles. I wouldn't choose any other hospice company if my family needed hospice again.
Elara Caring Hospice is full of wonderful and caring people! They give top notch care to their patients and treat their employees like gold! Elara Caring Hospice gives the best care in Howard County and surrounding areas.
