Hospice patients can get medications for pain and symptom control. Many insurance plans now cover hospice services. Hospices can make illness and death much easier for the patient and the family. Hospice facilities often encourage visitors, provide lounges for family, and may allow family to bring pets in to visit. They are much less restrictive than hospitals.
Hospices can also insure a pain-free illness and a comfortable death.
