When a loved one enters hospice, they receive specialized care that focuses on managing symptoms and providing comfort rather than trying to cure their illness. The hospice team works closely with the patient and their family to develop a care plan that meets their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. This may include pain and symptom management, emotional support, and assistance with activities of daily living.

The hospice team also provides education and guidance to the patient and their family and helps them prepare for the end of life. Hospice care aims to ensure that patients are as comfortable and pain-free as possible and that their wishes are respected during their final days.
