Hospice Care For Terminally Ill

 

Hospice Care is an option for anyone, regardless of age, with a terminal illness. Many people have a misunderstanding of hospice care believing it is is only for patients with stage four cancer. However, this is not quite true. Although there are cases of hospice care for cancer patients, hospice care is actually for anyone with a terminal illness that has less than six months to live. The goal of hospice switches from curing the disease to providing comfort and reduce pain for the patient. Many patients with terminal illness suffers from chronic pain. The team of hospice care professional, which can include doctors, nurses, and home health aides, will provide pain control and any assistance for the patient so they may live comfortably. Learn about hospice care from Mayo Clinic‘s “End of Life“.
