Things to Consider When Choosing a Hospice
|
With multiple hospice options in Yuma and the surrounding areas, it is important you make the best choice for your loved one.
|
- Does the hospice organization have a full-time physician on staff who makes home visits and is board-certified in Palliative Care Medicine?
- What is the average caseload per nurse? The lower the caseload, the better the care.
- Does the hospice organization have full-time nurses dedicated to only weekend and evening hours?
- How does the hospice organization meet the spiritual and emotional need of the patient and family?
- What type of reputation does the hospice organization have in the local medical community regarding the quality of services provided?
