Top Rated Utah Hospice Care Service Providers

Some people believe that hospice is a service that you bring in during the final days of life. This is actually a big misconception. There is so much more that hospice can do for a patient if the decision to start with hospice is made early.

The number one comment families make to the staff at Inspiration Hospice is, “I wish I had started hospice sooner.”

Studies have shown that patients not only live longer (an average of 29 days or more), but their final days are more comfortable and overall better experience for everyone involved when hospice is brought in early.

In a survey conducted through an Independent Medical survey team, family members were asked what is the number one thing you want most for a loved one who is facing an end of life illness? 83% said they did not want the patient to suffer or have any unnecessary pain.

Hospice is designed to keep patients more comfortable, but also to help them have a more fulfilling experience while providing them with more time to enjoy the remaining days of their life. There are many services and therapies included with hospice, but a great hospice provider will also help guide you through the many decisions that come up along the way.

Medicare and most private insurance providers provide 100% cover for hospice care. Therefore, there is no out of pocket cost involved. Inspiration Hospice goes one step further and can cover costs for any hospice patient who does not have coverage.

You should never have to worry about how much it costs when a loved one is facing a terminal illness. Talk with a health provider at Inspiration Hospice to discuss any special circumstances you may have regarding coverage.
