The hospice team usually includes a nurse, a social worker, and a chaplain. They work together to support the physical and emotional health of the patient.

What to Ask When Choosing a Hospice Provider
Choosing a hospice is a major decision for your family. You should feel empowered to ask questions until you feel comfortable. Here are a few things to consider asking during your first meeting:
- How quickly can a nurse get to our home if we have an urgent problem at night?
- What specific training do your staff members have to manage pain and difficult symptoms?
- How will you help our family cope with the emotional stress of this transition?
- Can you tell us how you involve family members in the daily plan of care?
Do not be afraid to ask for clarity on any part of the process. A good provider will welcome these questions. They should be happy to explain their role and how they will support your loved one. Trust your instincts when you speak with their team.
