The Advantages of Hospice Care

June 8, 2011 by Sinclair Prosser Gasior

When your loved one becomes terminally ill, hospice care may be a great option.  Hospice care can help to make your loved one feel comfortable as he or she reaches the end of life.

While this experience can be an extremely upsetting and difficult time for all involved, hospice care can offer many benefits to both a patient and his or her family.  If you’re interested in hospice care, speak with an elder law attorney to discuss your opportunities.

  • Hospice patients are able to be around their friends and family during their time of need.
  • Your loved one is able to be in a more relaxed setting, instead of dealing with the environmental stresses that a hospital setting may include.
  • Physical well-being and emotional well-being are dealt with through hospice care.
  • Your loved one can get help easing the pain and discomfort that he or she may be feeling.  This is the main focus of hospice, palliative care.
  • As a patient, your loved one’s quality of life will be improved.
  • Your loved one will have access to many different experts and professionals.
  • Hospice care can be less costly than other care options and is covered by Medicare.
  • Your loved one will no longer have to participate in uncomfortable and stressful hospital treatments or procedures.
  • You and your loved one are able to come to better terms with death.
  • Your family can take advantage of bereavement support and services to help ease the pain and sadness.

 

You can help your loved one feel better about the end of life.  Hospice can help your family and your loved one throughout the struggle.
If your loved one needs an alternative to long term care, such as hospice care, consult with a qualified elder law attorney.

Client Review
September 3, 2020
    

We initiated estate planning following a presentation by Sinclair Prosser Attorney Jon Gasior. We were so impressed, we contracted with them to complete our estate planning. Subsequently, we assembled information on our assets and Sinclair Prosser Gasior did the rest. Correspondence was communicated to our financial institutions and the estate was established. We were very pleased with the courteous manner of the Sinclair Prosser Gasior staff. However, it was their professionalism that made us satisfied we chose this firm to handle our estate. We have nothing but praise for Sinclair Prosser Gasior .
