When you need to select hospice care, it can be an extremely difficult time. Besides the emotional trauma, you need to deal with practical matters like insurance coverage and medical care. Most hospices offer the same basic services, so how do you differentiate between them to choose what’s best for your needs?

We are dedicated to providing patients with care wherever they consider home. Hospice is a special way of caring for people with terminal illnesses. Knowing when to refer a loved one for a hospice evaluation can be difficult. That is why we have provided health care providers, as well as patients and families, with some indicators that may indicate eligibility for hospice care.

Caring for a loved one is one of the most significant challenges life can present. We're here for the families and friends of our patients, too. Whether it’s to have a safe space to share feelings or to remember the memory of loved ones. Heartland Hospice serving Raleigh-Durham was faced with challenges this year when it came to planning their annual memorial service. However, instead of the typical in-person service that is held each year, the team was able to plan several events that ensured the participants would stay safe. Kristin Lassiter, bereavement coordinator, tells about the drive-thru events:
Enrolling in hospice before the holidays can give eligible patients and families emotional and physical support that provides them with comfort and care during the holiday season.
We often hear people say that they wish they had started with hospice care sooner. By choosing to receive hospice before the holidays, the full benefits of hospice can be received by those who are eligible for hospice care.

Pet therapy is one of the additional services many of our hospice agencies offer. Interacting with a friendly pet can help with any possible physical and mental issues. Pet interaction also helps produce a calming feeling, which can alleviate pain and reduce stress. Heartland Hospice serving Central Wisconsin has been utilizing pet volunteers since October 2012 when the agency first began caring for hospice patients.
