What is Hospice?
Hospice care is a specialized form of care focused on providing comfort and support to individuals with a terminal illness, typically when curative treatment is no longer effective or desired. Hospice is merely a way to manage chronic conditions with support from licensed, trained, and spiritual care teams. The main goal of hospice is to provide pain and symptom relief, while reducing the burden on family caregivers. Hospice and palliative care can be provided, wherever you call home, allowing a person to age with the dignity and support they need. Key components of hospice care include:
- Pain and Symptom Management
- Emotional and Spiritual Support
- Personal Care Assistance
- Family Support to help families cope with the emotional and logistical challenges of caregiving
- Medical Services including nursing care, medication management, and help with medical equipment needed for comfort
Hospice care is typically covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and most private insurances, and is intended for patients who have a life expectancy of six months or less, although care can be extended if needed. The care is holistic, addressing physical, emotional, and spiritual needs to provide a peaceful and supportive environment for the patient and their loved ones.
