Our cancer-focused hospice program emphasizes aggressive pain and symptom management, emotional and spiritual support, and helping families make the most of their time together. Hospice is not about giving up — it is about choosing quality of life. #### Who It Helps Hospice for cancer is appropriate for patients with advanced or metastatic cancer who have chosen to focus on comfort rather than curative treatment, or for whom curative treatment is no longer effective. #### What to Expect Our team provides expert pain management (including medication titration for cancer-related pain), symptom control for nausea, fatigue, and shortness of breath, emotional counseling, spiritual support, and family guidance. We are available 24/7 for urgent needs. ### Care Coordination We coordinate with your oncologist and medical team to ensure a smooth transition to comfort-focused care. Our interdisciplinary team provides comprehensive support for the whole family. #### When to Call If you or a loved one has been told that cancer treatment is no longer working, or if you are considering shifting focus to comfort and quality of life, please call us. We can help you understand your options. [ #### When Is It Time for Hospice? Learn about common indicators and disease-specific criteria that may signal it's time to consider hospice care.
