Description

Hospices offer palliative and supportive care to the terminally ill, focusing on managing pain and other symptoms instead of seeking curative treatment for an illness. Recently, the concept of palliative care has expanded beyond the boundaries of hospice care to include care and services provided to patients suffering from progressive, incurable illnesses, who may or may not be eligible for hospice care, depending on whether their life expectancy is greater than six months.
