Frequently Asked Questions
When is the right time to start hospice care?
The ideal time to start is as soon as a physician determines a prognosis of six months or less, should the illness run its natural course. Starting early allows the patient and family to benefit from the full range of support services, stabilizing symptoms and maximizing comfort sooner.
Does electing hospice mean we are giving up all medical treatment?
Electing hospice means shifting the goal of treatment from curative to comfort focused palliative care. We continue to provide aggressive treatment for pain and symptoms. You can also continue treatments for conditions unrelated to the terminal illness.
Where is hospice care provided?
Hospice is a service, not a place. The majority of our care is provided wherever the patient calls home: a private residence, nursing home, or assisted living facility. Short-term inpatient care may be arranged for symptom crises or respite needs.
Is hospice care expensive?
At Solace Hospice, we believe that focusing on comfort and quality of life should be your priority, not worrying about medical bills. At Solace Hospice, we are committed to providing unparalleled, personalized end-of-life care that prioritizes your comfort, dignity, and wishes. Because we are a private-pay provider, we operate independently of insurance and government programs, allowing us to offer a truly bespoke experience without restrictions.
What if my loved one lives longer than six months?
If your loved one’s condition stabilizes or improves, they can continue to receive hospice care as long as a physician re-certifies that the eligibility criteria are still met. There is no limit to the time a person can be in hospice care, provided they remain eligible.
