WHAT IS HOSPICE CARE?

Hospice Care focuses on a rather than cure as a patient faces a terminal illness. Patients can participate in choosing the type of care that will help them live life as fully as possible. A unique and individualized plan of care is compassionately provided by our hospice team at whatever location the patient calls home, including long-term care and Residential Care Facilities.

WHO CAN REFER A PATIENT?

Anyone can refer a friend or their loved ones to a hospice program. The patient and family should feel free to discuss hospice care at any time with their physician, other health care professionals, clergy, or friends.

WHAT IS NEEDED TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR HOSPICE CARE?

Patient must be determined to have a terminal illness, with a prognosis of 6 months or less to live, if the disease follows its normal course; has made the choice to receive "palliative care" versus "curative" treatments; and agrees with comfort measures for continuing care.
