National Coalition for Hospice and Palliative Care’s Post

Did you know there are millions of people living with serious illness that impacts the quality of life for the patients, their families, and caregivers? Hospice is a specialized medical care delivered by a team of professionals and often volunteers in various settings such as in the home, hospital, or other care facilities. The term hospice is frequently misunderstood and is equated in many persons minds with imminent death. On the contrary, hospice care focuses on quality of life, on the wishes of the patient and family, and on easing distress at the end of life and the months preceding death.
