Hospice care is possibly one of the least understood concepts in healthcare. The goal of hospice is to provide physical, emotional, spiritual care and support to individuals diagnosed with a life-limiting illness and their families. Focus is on comfort, rather than a finding a cure that can include continuing painful and invasive treatment options. Hospice Care emphasis is on helping patients make the most of each day of remaining life by providing comfort and relief from pain. Hospice seeks to reduce the suffering involved in the dying process for both the patient and their loved ones. Care can be provided in a patient’s home, including Assisted Living, that of a family member, at a Skilled Nursing Facility, hospital or in a hospice facility. Based on individual patient need, the Hospice team consists of a Physician, Licensed Nurse, Social Worker, Clergy, Nursing Assistant and Trained Volunteers. Hospice Care in San Diego neither hastens nor postpones death. If a patient chooses or if their condition improves, they can discontinue hospice care.
