- Respite care (up to five days at a time, to give family caregivers a break)

Short stays in a hospice inpatient unit, hospital, or nursing home for pain or symptoms that cannot be managed where the patient lives, or to give family caregivers a break.

Medicare lets hospices provide these services through arrangements with other organizations. Either way, the hospice stays responsible for the covered care in the patient’s plan of care.

What to Ask When Choosing a Hospice Provider
You should have a clear conversation with any hospice team before you sign up. Start by asking how quickly a nurse can get to your home if an emergency happens at night. You should also ask how the team will help with pain and other symptoms. Ask if they have experience with your specific health needs. It is also good to ask how they support family members who are grieving. Find out how many staff members are on call during the weekend. You need to know who will answer the phone when you have a question. Do not be afraid to ask for a list of their recent survey results. A good provider will be open and honest with you about their care. Take your time to get the answers you need.
