final season of life. It is about allowing self-determined life closure;
individuals remain the decisions makers of how they will spend their precious
days, weeks, and months. Hospice focuses on quality of life, not quantity. We
provide hospice care wherever the individual designates as their home. That can
be in a private residence, nursing home, or assisted living facility. Hospice
care is available to patients of any age, religion, race, or illness. Hospice
care is covered under Medicare, Medicaid, most private insurance plans. What We
