LANCASTER — FAIRHOPE Hospice & Palliative Care celebrated the grand opening of their Advanced Illness Management (AIM) Clinic with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Sept. 23, hosted by the Lancaster-Fairfield County Chamber of Commerce alongside community leaders.
The AIM clinic, located at 1319 E. Main St., is designed to meet the growing needs of the community by providing a convenient setting where patients can receive care from nurse practitioners for routine visits and urgent, non-emergency care. Physician support will also be available to help patients better manage symptoms and stress associated with their conditions, ultimately aiming to reduce frequent hospitalizations. The AIM clinic shares the same building as Dr. Sean Jerig’s Obstetrics and Gynecology practice, with each maintaining their respective offices on designated sides of the facility.
Kristin Glasure, president and CEO of FAIRHOPE Hospice and Palliative Care, shared her thoughts on this expansion: “The opening of the AIM Clinic is an exciting next step in our ongoing commitment to providing compassionate care for our community. By offering more specialized services in a dedicated setting, we’re ensuring that patients with advanced illnesses receive the best possible care while staying close to home. Our goal is to support patients in managing their conditions and improving their quality of life.”…
