What to Ask When Choosing a Hospice Provider
Choosing the right care team is a personal decision. You want to feel good about who is coming into your home. Start by asking these questions to get a better sense of how they work. First, ask: 'How quickly can a nurse get to our home if there is an emergency at night?' You need to know that help is available 24/7. Second, ask: 'How will you help us manage pain and other symptoms?' You want a plan that is built just for your loved one. Third, ask: 'What kind of support do you offer to family caregivers?' Caring for someone is hard work, and you should not have to do it alone. And finally, ask: 'How often will a team member visit us?' Knowing the schedule helps you plan your days. These answers will help you decide if they are the right fit for your family.
