Medical supplies and equipment
Brought in through an outside supplier

Equipment and supplies tied to the terminal illness and the plan of care, such as a hospital bed, oxygen, wound supplies, or a wheelchair.

What to Ask When Choosing a Hospice Provider

Choosing the right hospice is a big decision for your family. Start by asking how quickly a nurse can get to your home after you call. You need to know if they have staff on call during nights and weekends. Ask them how they manage pain and other difficult symptoms at home. It is also good to ask how they support family members during the grieving process. You should feel comfortable with the people who will enter your home. Ask how often the nurse will visit and who you should call with questions. Find out if they have experience with the specific illness your loved one faces. Every hospice has a different style of communication. Pick the one that makes you feel heard and supported. You deserve clear answers to every question you have before you sign any paperwork.
