While receiving hospice care, you will receive visits from your personal team of healthcare professionals including nurses, aides, social workers, chaplains, and volunteers. Each has been trained to meet the patient’s physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and personal care needs. Your hospice team will help with bathing, administering medication, wound care, companionship, and more.

In addition, all medication, medical equipment, and medical supplies related to your terminal illness will be provided at no cost to you or your family.
