Emotional Care
"The people we dealt with were wonderful and helped my mother die at home which was our family's wish for her."
Hospice works with the patient and family to help alleviate the emotional stress that can be experienced during this very difficult time. This is done through:
-
Social workers who provide individual and/or family counseling, as well as supportive health teaching
-
Professionally facilitated support groups that are available to family members and friends
-
Patient advocacy and helping to facilitate goals
-
Assistance navigating paper work involved with insurance information and future planning
