What should Families expect during In-Home Hospice Care? The most common misconception about hospice is that people think it’s a place when in reality it is a type of care administered to a terminally ill patient in their own home. The holistic approach of hospice care is what sets it apart from other forms of patient care. It is primarily designed to address the patient’s emotional, mental, and spiritual needs in conjunction with managing their physical symptoms. So what should the family of patient expect during this time? Once the family has made the decision to place their loved one in hospice care, things move quickly. The first few days are comprised of meetings with healthcare team members regarding medical supplies, prescription medications, and determining the visitation schedule.
