Frequently Asked Questions
What should I know about the difference between palliative care and hospice care?
Palliative care helps manage symptoms and improve comfort during any stage of a serious illness. Hospice care is focused on comfort and support when a person is nearing the end of life. We work with families to ensure the right type of care is provided at the right time.
How do I know if hospice care is the right option for my loved one?
Hospice care is often the best choice when treatments are no longer effective and the focus shifts to comfort and quality of life. We help families understand these signs and support them through this transition.
What kind of support can I expect from caregivers during hospice care?
Our caregivers assist with physical care, such as repositioning to prevent bed sores, personal hygiene, and symptom management. They also provide emotional support and companionship, helping both patients and families feel cared for.
What is hospice care and how does it work?
Hospice care helps people who have a terminal illness focus on comfort, not curing the illness. It usually includes help with pain, daily support, and emotional care at home or in a facility.
Is hospice care covered by insurance?
Most insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid, cover hospice services. It’s best to check with the provider to be sure what’s included.
When should someone start hospice care?
Most people think about hospice when a doctor says there’s a life expectancy of six months or less. It’s a good time to start when comfort becomes the main goal instead of medical treatment.
What should I look for when choosing hospice care services?
Look for caregivers who are well-trained in end-of-life care, experienced with serious illness, and able to provide both physical and emotional support. We focus on these areas to deliver compassionate care that truly makes a difference.
