  • What happens if there is an emergency in the middle of the night?
  • How does your team help with pain and other difficult symptoms?
  • Can you provide emotional support for our whole family during this time?

Asking these questions helps you understand how they work. It also helps you see if their values match what your family needs. Do not be afraid to ask for more details. A good provider will be happy to answer your questions clearly. Their goal is to help you feel safe and supported.
