When is it time?
Hospice care is intended for people whose doctor believes they have about six months or less to live (and up to twelve months in certain cases). Many families later express that they wish they had contacted hospice earlier. These services are centered on enhancing comfort, supporting mobility, and encouraging fulfilling social interaction, allowing patients to stay involved and maintain a sense of control for as long as possible.
If hospice isn’t the right fit yet, we also provide Palliative Care, which can be offered while you continue receiving curative treatments. This program—available to those covered by Medicare—partners with you and your physician to address symptoms and boost overall quality of life for individuals facing serious health conditions.
