Hospice is for families who are coping with a terminal illness. Hospice works with the family to ensure the patient and their family can make the most of the time remaining.
Hospice care provides respect and dignity to the terminally ill in their final days.
It is a way to provide physical, emotional, social and spiritual help to the patient and their family as they live each day to the fullest and prepare to say goodbye with dignity and compassion. The Hospice staff acts as a patient advocate, providing education and guiding the patient and family through the dying and grief process. Hospice Care Hospice patients receive medical treatment to manage their pain and disease symptoms. The goal is to make the patient as comfortable as possible while allowing the patient to remain alert and make informed decisions. Family members and friends are an integral part of the hospice experience.
