patients in care on an average day

A rough measure of size. Smaller can mean more personal. Larger can mean more resources.

Medicare reports this hospice billed for routine home care only. Hospices can also provide continuous home care, inpatient care, and respite care when symptoms are harder to manage. There can be good reasons for this. Ask the provider how they handle a crisis at home.

What to Ask When Choosing a Hospice Provider

Selecting a care team is a big decision for your family. You should feel comfortable with the people who will enter your home. Start by asking how the team handles pain management and after-hours calls. It is also good to ask how often a nurse will visit your loved one. You should find out how the staff works with your current doctor. Ask if they provide care for specific medical conditions you are facing today. Learn what their volunteers do to help families during hard times. Another good question is how they handle changes in a patient's health. You want a team that talks to you clearly and often. Make sure you understand their plan for communication. Getting these answers early can help you feel more at peace with your choice.
