Hospice care is a new beginning for patients, offering compassion and comfort throughout the final stages of their journey through life.✨ Studies show that most patients with serious illness would benefit from being referred to hospice sooner for comprehensive care. Timely access to the Medicare Hospice Benefit enables patients to leverage the full scope of services available to them, including clinical, psychosocial, and spiritual support.🙏🏼 Start the conversation about end-of-life care today.💜 #HealthcareProfessionals #HospiceCare #CompassionateCare
