To learn more about Cathy's direct experience with hospice, you can read about Denine Sharpe's Hospice Experience . However, when a patient and family encounter problems, they have little idea of where to turn or what to do. When the hospice itself is violating their trust and the standards of care, they are often devastated and suffer needlessly. HPA is here to help. The Hospice Patients Alliance is supported totally by donations from the general public.
Donations are tax-deductible to the full extent permitted by law.
Your support is vital to our mission. This website is being provided as a service to all of you who are seeking to learn more about hospice and how to most effectively meet the needs of your loved one, family and yourselves. We educate the general public about hospice and how to obtain the very best hospice care services available. The health care industry can sometimes seem like a stormy sea of confusing medical jargon and technical information which is not easily navigated. For some, the increase of profits for stockholders and top executive salaries has become the goal, rather than providing quality services.
