Part one will discuss what hospice care is and how and when to ask for it, who pays for it and palliative care vs hospice care. We will also talk about advance planning. Part two will discuss grief, loss and support available through hospice. We will talk about the entire spectrum of grief and will provide a list of support resources. We hope you will walk away with a better understanding of the benefits of hospice care, why advance planning is so important and how to recognize and manage grief.
