More Care. More Visits. More Like Family.

Why Hospice?

Hospice is normally viewed as someone’s final days. That’s the ending, but not the beginning to hospice care.

Many families tell us, “I should have done this much sooner.”

Through their experiences, they saw the benefits and blessings of hospice for their loved one and for themselves.

People who choose hospice early in their diagnosis have their pain and symptoms managed sooner, so they have a better quality of life. It’s common for individuals to improve in the beginning because their needs are met. Also, it gives individuals a bigger role in their care and how they want to live the rest of their life. They also receive a trusted support system – physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually – to be by their side.

It’s why we encourage individuals with life-threatening conditions to make the choice early in their prognosis.
