When is it time for hospice care?
It is time for hospice when a patient’s focus has shifted from curative measures to making the most of life and spending quality time with family. Hospice care is most beneficial the sooner it begins. Many people are not referred early enough to take advantage of all that hospice has to offer. Families and patients receive the most benefit from hospice when hospice is in the home for three months or longer.
