Hospice care is a compassionate service tailored to provide comfort and support to individuals facing life-limiting illnesses, and their families. The focus of hospice is on symptom management, ensuring that patients experience the highest possible quality of life during their remaining time. Emotional and spiritual support is also a crucial component, with counselors and chaplains available to address the unique needs of both patients and their loved ones. Personal care assistance is provided by hospice aides, who help with activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating, allowing patients to maintain their dignity and comfort. Medical support is offered by a team of nurses and doctors who manage medications and coordinate care with other healthcare providers.
