Description:
Hospice care not only helps with managing your symptoms, but also helps you and your family with emotional and spiritual support.
You don't have to be ready for hospice. In fact, hospice doesn't expect you to be ready. You just have to be eligible for the services which can increase the quality of your life.
Many people think that hospice care is for the last few days of life, when in fact patients can receive it much earlier. In customer satisfaction surveys, many families said they wish they had known about hospice sooner.
Receiving hospice care may help you avoid frequent trips to the hospital.
