Hospice care is available to patients and families dealing with
terminal illness. People often do not avail themselves of hospice
care because they don't understand what it entails. Many wait until
their last few days to request this extraordinary comfort care
instead of using the full six months available to them through
Medicare and other insurance options. Demystifying Hospice
describes through stories good news about end-of-life issues.
Written from the perspective of a licensed social worker with
experience in public and private hospitals, hospice, and the
American Cancer Society, these first-hand accounts of patients,
family members, hospice workers and others will lift spirits, touch
hearts, and illustrate the advantages of hospice care. These are
real-life examples of personalized comfort care, offered by an
interdisciplinary team, where ever the patient lives. Each story
addresses some aspect of helping families through the caregiving
and grieving process, which are part-and-parcel of a serious
illness, and offers comfort and understanding to readers who may be
going through similar experiences. This book describes hope,
healing, and support through difficult times.
