The First Commerce Center for Compassionate Care is a Big Bend Hospice inpatient unit on the third floor of Tallahassee Memorial Hospital. It was designed to be a homelike atmosphere to allow families to focus on what matters most—quality of life and time together. Eight thoughtfully decorated patient rooms support family members staying with their loved ones in a warm, homelike, comforting environment. The unit features a reflection room, communal kitchen and spaces for family gatherings.
The FCCCC unit is staffed by Big Bend Hospice’s specifically trained medical and support professionals. These staff members provide support for:
- Pain and other symptoms that require expert care around the clock.
- Patients’ and families’ emotional, spiritual, and practical needs.
- Plans for transitions in care depending on each situation.
The FCCCC is available to provide hospice care to all eligible patients whether those individuals come from home, a facility, or another hospital. A physician must order general inpatient care (GIP) for patients to be eligible for admission to the FCCCC.
