What is Hospice Care?

When Is It Time for Hospice Care?

Many families ask this question—and often wish they had called sooner. The truth is, hospice is not about waiting until the very end—it’s about getting the right support as early as possible to improve quality of life.

Hospice may be appropriate when:

  • A physician confirms a life expectancy of 6 months or less
  • Treatments are no longer improving quality of life
  • Increased sleeping / fatigue
  • Weight loss or reduced food intake
  • Confusion or cognitive decline
  • Inability to perform daily activities
  • Repeated infections or hospitalizations
