Making best days possible

Hospice Conversations

"My loved one isn't ready for hospice."

Have you found yourself thinking this? Try asking yourself this question: do you mean your loved one isn’t ready medically or emotionally? Remember that hospice care is for people who still have months to live — a way for families to focus on quality time together while your hospice team ensures management of pain and other symptoms.

Hospice also doesn't mean your loved one is giving up. Many families wish they’d gotten hospice care involved sooner. In fact, hospice care improves the quality of life for patients and helps make their days some of the best in a lifetime.

Hospice care doesn't have to be permanent. Did you know you can try hospice care (with consent from a doctor)? If your loved one isn’t comfortable or still feels they’re not ready, they can discontinue the care whenever they wish. Hospice is a journey that puts patients and their families in the driver’s seat!

We're here when you need us. Talk to us today about ways to make your loved one's days some of the best in a lifetime!
