Navigating hospice care

Hospice treatment is a type of specialized care that people receive at the end of life. It's designed to help people pass with dignity by keeping them as comfortable as possible and supported in their final days.

Home hospice care is a group effort that involves medical professionals such as physicians, hospice nurses, and home health aides, as well as professionals from other fields. Religious leaders, bereavement counselors, and in-home caregivers all play a part in providing the following kinds of support:

Physical
Emotional
Social
Spiritual

How hospice and home care work together

When a loved one is nearing the end of life at home, it's important to have a caring hospice team to give them the care they need and to support your family. Unfortunately, regular visits from home health hospice nurses aren't always enough.

That's where home care comes in. Home caregivers can spend much more time in the home attending to your loved one's health needs. They provide personal care on a daily basis, paying close attention to how your loved one’s condition is progressing. Home hospice providers, like Home Instead, then coordinate with your loved one’s physicians and hospice agency so that the proper physical care is provided, ensuring that they are kept as comfortable as possible until the very end.

In home hospice caregivers also help your loved one and their families deal with the complex emotions that arise during hospice care. They can help you emotionally prepare for the loss of life and understand what to expect as your loved one's disease progresses. They may also help with practical matters such as:

Light housekeeping
Hygiene and personal care
Mobility care
Transportation
Meal preparation
