Why Choose Hospice & Palliative Care?

In 2020, over 1.72 million Medicare recipients chose hospice care as their end-of-life option, marking a 6.8% increase from the previous year. Hospice care offers comfort and support for both the patient and their loved ones during this challenging time.

When it comes to palliative care, it can be difficult to make the right decision for you and your family. We've compiled this guide to help explain why hospice care is a popular choice.

Dignity is a top priority: Hospice and palliative care allow patients to die with dignity, rather than undergoing invasive treatments to prolong their life. In a hospice setting, the focus is on providing a comfortable and dignified environment for the patient and their loved ones.

Comprehensive care plans: Hospice care facilities work with a team of professionals to create a personalized care plan that addresses all aspects of the patient's illness. At Generation Care, our goal is to respect the patient's final wishes and provide the highest standard of care.

Lessens the financial burden: The cost of end-of-life care can be overwhelming for families. Hospice care can significantly reduce out-of-pocket expenses and may be covered by Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance.

Familiar environment: Hospice care can be provided in a hospice center or in the comfort of the patient's home. Home hospice care can provide a sense of normalcy and stability for the patient.

Choosing hospice care for your loved one can help them retain their dignity and comfort during their final days. If you have any questions or would like a free consultation, please don't hesitate to contact us. We're here to help and support you in your decision-making process.
