What is Hospice?
Hospice is a philosophy of care designed around the goals and wishes of those facing life-limiting illness or injury when a cure is no longer the goal.
Hospice means more care, not less. Our interdisciplinary team focuses on comfort, symptom management, and emotional support.
Who is Eligible?
Patients are eligible for hospice care when a physician determines that, given the natural course of the illness, life expectancy is six months or less.
Choosing hospice can feel overwhelming, and waiting too long is not uncommon. Starting with hospice earlier improves comfort, reduces hospitalizations, and provides extra support to patients and families.
