  • What is hospice? Hospice care is the only healthcare system specifically designed to provide support and comfort for patients and families when they are no longer seeking a cure for a life-limiting illness. In this first video of our hospice care education series, we'll help you understand what hospice care really is. We will explain how specialized teams work together to deliver personalized care to patients and families. We want to help you understand that hospice is a philosophy of care - one that reduces the burden of medical care so patients and their families can focus on what truly matters, time together.
    00:00 Intro
    01:35 Hospice gives you a team that you cannot assemble on your own.
    02:17 Hospice gives you the support you need.
    02:49 Hospice takes on burdens so you can spend quality time with your loved one.
    03:05 Hospice guides you through expected and unexpected issues.
    03:48 Hospice care is provided where most people prefer - the place they call home.

    I'm 29 years old and I have stage 4 terminal brain cancer. I have months left to live. I'm on hospice care and they do an amazing job when they see me every week.

    My best friend is currently taking care of her mother in law while she passes. Hospice has been involved, but it’s extremely different than what I thought. I thought they were there around the clock assisting the family. She is literally in the last phase and will be passing very soon. However, I really thought the Hospice professionals would stay there for the end. Rather than just an hour each day. I’m not trying to sound negative about them, they have been such a blessing. I’m just confused about what happens for the last few hours. Thank you very much.

      Sounds lovely but I've been through hospice with many of family member and the bottom line is family has to take over the responsibility for administrative medication the nurse comes maybe once maybe twice a week the bathing is once or twice a week the rest is all up to the family and the family doesn't get any support unless they are a big family if it's a small family you're on your own and Hospice provides very little Daily support. If you think that putting your loved 1 in hospice at home is going to free your time your much lead deluded you will be tied to that situation day and night and it will be extremely distressing. I know hospital willing tended but you need to be more honest about what people can expect in terms of support cause it just isn't there and I think multiple hospital is actually

    Has there been any cases of someone recovering and getting off hospice? Or is hospice just treatment to keep a patient comfortable for when they're on their way out?

      It can happen believe it or not. I just spoke to someone with a stage 4 cancer Dx, who was put on inpatient hospice, but got stronger/better, and was able to go home with family. I’d never heard of anything like this before now. Miracles happy everyday! 🥰

      This is a little late but I was on Hospice for 7 months following a diagnosis of terminal liver cancer. I seen a nurse once a week or less. Every discomfort was immediately addressed with a prescription until I had a box of 14 different pills, even though none of my symptoms were something anyone would associate with liver cancer. No yellowing, no swelling. I finally just stopped taking everything except morphine and I got better. That was over 2 years ago.

  • @mohammedaslam2912

    These hospices put a 6 months countdown timer in front of each patient's bed. This is to facilitate the patient in understanding how much time they have left. After the timer is complete, if the patient still doesn't die, the hospice nurses kill them. It's philosophical to the families.
    I don't really understand why anyone would abandon their loved ones to die here instead of trying till the last??
