What Is Hospice Care?

Hospice care is a holistic approach to end-of-life care that focuses on quality of life as opposed to acute intervention. For individuals with life expectancies of six months or less, hospice care at home empowers families and loved ones to make their time together more meaningful. Some of the most common diagnoses for hospice care include:

  • Cancer
  • Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)
  • Stroke
  • Dementia
  • HIV/AIDS
  • Non-healing wounds
  • COPD
  • Liver disease
  • And more

  • Frequent hospitalizations and ER visits
  • Progressive health decline despite treatment
  • Multiple life-limiting diagnoses
