Deciding that you need hospice care can be very difficult. Once you have accepted this need, the next tough step can be finding the right care. Where do you start? What do you look for?
Many people do not like to talk about end of life or hospice care. This can create a problem while you are looking for the needed care. You can ask your family and friends. Many of them may know more than you think, even if they have not spoken about it before you asked. Another good way to search is with an online tool. No single answer will give you all everything one place.
Start by asking family and friends and then add more options by searching online. Be prepared to visit one or two of the local hospice care facilities before making your final decision. Researching this can help you to find the end of life comfort, support and treatment you need as you spend your remaining time with your family and friends.
