Why Some Patients Aren’t Getting Hospice Care?

Some people still believe that hospice care is a death sentence and thus, actively choose to avoid hospice care. Are you one of them?

This is the biggest myth that surrounds hospice care. Many people think that hospice care is only designed for people who are expected to pass away within a few days. However, this is NOT AT ALL TRUE!

Hospice care addresses symptoms of a disease while paying special attention to controlling the pain and discomfort the patient may be experiencing. Hospice care is also focused on providing support to the family members as well.

Hospice care should never be seen as something that hastens death. The difference between curative care and hospice care is that the focus during hospice care is no longer on curing the patient rather it is on making the patient feel comfortable.

Also, if you qualify for hospice care, it doesn’t mean that you are definitely going to die within the next 6 months. Rather, it means that you will be reevaluated every 6 months to see if you are still eligible to use hospice care!

Words are inadequate to describe how much I appreciate what they did to help my father pass away peacefully. Words cannot express our thanks for all the care they provided.
