Frequently Asked Questions
What is hospice care?
Considered the model for quality compassionate care for people facing a life-limiting illness, hospice provides expert medical care, pain management, and emotional and spiritual support expressly tailored to the patient’s needs and wishes. Support is provided to the patient’s family as well. Hospice focuses on caring, not curing. In most cases, care is provided in the patient’s home but may also be provided in inpatient hospice facilities, hospitals, nursing homes, Assisted Living Facilities and Comfort homes. Hospice services are available to patients with any terminal illness or of any age, religion, or race.
When is the right time to ask about hospice?
Now is the best time to learn more about hospice care and ask questions about what to expect. Although end-of-life care may be difficult to discuss, it is best for loved ones and family members to share their wishes long before it becomes a concern. This can greatly reduce stress when the time for hospice becomes apparent. By having these discussions in advance, uncomfortable situations can be avoided. Instead, educated decisions can be made that include the advice and input of loved ones.
