Find out how they handle calls during the night or on weekends. Ask who will be part of your regular care team. It helps to know if the same nurse will visit each time. You might also ask how they support family members who are grieving. Do they offer counseling or support groups? Ask about their volunteers and what specific tasks they can help with. These questions help you see if their approach matches your needs. Take notes during your talk so you can compare your options later.
