What is usually not included in hospice care?
Hospice care typically focuses on comfort rather than curative treatment, so it generally does not include aggressive medical treatments aimed at curing the illness. Hospital stays, emergency room visits, and treatments unrelated to the palliative care of the terminal illness, such as chemotherapy for cancer or dialysis for kidney failure, are usually not covered.
What is palliative care vs. hospice care services?
Palliative care can begin at any stage of a serious illness and works alongside curative treatments, focusing on relieving symptoms and stress. Hospice care is specifically for those who are nearing the end of life, generally considered to be in the last six months of life, and involves stopping curative treatments to focus solely on comfort and quality of life.
What happens when a senior starts hospice care services? How can I make them comfortable to start this at home?
When a senior starts hospice care services, a team of healthcare professionals works together to create a care plan tailored to the senior's needs and comfort. To make a senior comfortable starting hospice care at home, ensure their living space is peaceful and familiar, keep personal items and mementos close by, and maintain open communication about their preferences and needs.
Can hospice care be completed at home?
Yes, hospice care can certainly be completed at home. Home-based hospice care provides comprehensive medical, emotional, and spiritual support directly in the patient’s home, ensuring they remain comfortable and dignified throughout their care.
What qualifications should I look for in a hospice care agency?
Look for agencies with licensed and accredited staff, extensive experience, positive testimonials, and a wide range of services tailored to individual needs. These qualifications ensure the agency is capable of providing high-quality and compassionate care.
How do I arrange for a hospice care assessment?
Contact the hospice care agency directly to schedule a consultation and assessment. During this assessment, your needs and preferences will be discussed to create a personalized care plan.
