Supporting The Hospice Journey
​When a family makes the difficult decision to transition its loved one from curing to caring, the time remaining is both emotionally, physically and mentally challenging for everyone involved.
Hospice comes with increased demands and requires a higher level of around-the-clock care to ensure a patient's comfort and quality of life in the final months and days. In addition, feelings of workload fatigue and stress can compound a family caregiver's emotions during this challenging time.
At Home Instead®, we support families struggling to meet the 24/7 needs of their loved ones. Serving as a complement to hospice nurses and as an extension of the family, our Care Professionals enable terminally ill patients to remain in the safety and comfort of home — wherever home may be.
And having extra hands, eyes and ears at home can help family members get the respite they so desperately need.
In-Home Hospice Care Support
Activities of daily living might come easy to most of us, but, for hospice patients, those activities are far from routine. That means family caregivers must be readily available to assist their loved ones with nearly every facet of life, especially as everyday activities become increasingly difficult with the progression of the illness.
Our Care Professionals can help hospice patients perform daily activities with dignity and in the comfort and security of home, even as their health declines.
