What to Ask When Choosing a Hospice Provider
You have the right to ask questions before you pick a hospice agency. Start by asking how the team handles pain management at night. You should also ask how often a nurse will visit the home. It helps to know who will be your main contact person. Ask how they support family members who are grieving. You might want to ask if they have experience with your specific health condition. It is fine to ask for a list of services included in their care plan. Ask what happens if the patient needs more care than the home can offer. They should explain the transition to a hospital or inpatient unit. Do not feel rushed during these talks. A good provider will take the time to answer every question you have. They want you to feel comfortable with the choice you make for your loved one.
