Hospice care is an approach to healthcare that coordinates the care given by doctors, social workers, psychologists and more to ensure the best care.
Hospice can also provide emotional and/or spiritual support for the patient or family, said KSTP’s medical expert Dr. Archelle Georgiou. In addition, hospice’s have staff on care 24/7 and are usually covered by Medicare.
