How Does Hospice Care Work?

Sometimes patients reach a point near the end of their life when the complications associated with curative treatment outweigh the potential benefits. Hospice care provides patients with an opportunity to remain as comfortable as possible in their very own homes or care home. A team of experts works with patients and families to create customized care plans that maintain dignity, comfort, and quality of life above all. For more guidance on deciding if hospice care is appropriate, see our article 8 Signs it’s Time for Hospice Care.
