What to Ask When Choosing a Hospice Provider
You need to feel good about the team coming into your home. Start by asking how they handle pain management at night or on weekends. It is vital to know who will answer your call when a crisis happens. Ask how often the nurse will visit the patient in a typical week. You should also find out what volunteers do to help your family during this time. Ask if they have experience with your loved one's specific health condition. It is okay to ask about their experience with local hospitals in the Burbank area. Good providers will answer these questions clearly and with patience. They should explain how they keep you informed about changes in care. Do not be afraid to ask for details about their support services for family members. You deserve to get clear answers before you choose a team to help you.
