When to Consider Hospice for Terminal Illness Care
Hospice care is appropriate when a patient has a prognosis of six months or less, and curative treatments are no longer effective or desired. Families often benefit from starting hospice care early to ensure more comfort and emotional support.
Signs It’s Time:
- Increased pain or discomfort.
- Difficulty managing symptoms.
- A desire for quality of life over curative treatments.
Our team is here to guide you through this decision, offering clarity and compassionate care at every step.
