What to Ask When Choosing a Hospice Provider
You should feel empowered to ask questions before you sign anything. Start by asking how quickly a nurse can get to your home after a call. You need to know that help is available 24/7 if an emergency happens. Ask how they handle pain management and if they have a doctor available to talk. It is also smart to ask about their volunteer services. Many families find great comfort in having a volunteer sit with their loved one. Finally, ask them how they involve family members in the care plan. You know your loved one best. A good hospice team will always listen to your input. Do not feel rushed to make a choice. Take your time to find the right fit for your family. A good provider will be happy to answer all your questions with patience and care. That is the standard you should expect.
