Is Hospice Right for My Loved One?
By Andy Milligan President and CEO of Solaris Hospice.
Your loved one may qualify for hospice services if one or more of the following statements are true:
- There is a life-limiting illness such as lung disease, congestive heart failure, cancer or dementia.
- Treatment for a cure is no longer available or is not desired.
- Relief from pain or symptoms resulting from the illness would enhance quality of life.
- The caregivers and patient would benefit from care and assistance at home.
