🏠💙 Myth vs. Fact: Hospice Care Edition 💙🏠 🌟 Myth: Hospice is a place you go to receive care. 🌟 Fact: Hospice is not a place; it's a philosophy of care for people who are living with an advanced or life-limited illness. Our devoted team brings compassionate care to you, wherever "home" may be – whether it's the coziness of your own space, the support of a residential community, or the familiarity of a skilled nursing facility. Let's dismantle misconceptions and amplify understanding. Hospice care is about embracing life's journey with grace and love, no matter where it leads. Together, let's rewrite the narrative and celebrate the true essence of hospice care! #hospice #healthcare #homehealth #hospiceawareness #wetakecareofpeople #onamission

Embarking on hospice care starts with understanding eligibility. Here are practical steps to guide you: - Assess the Illness Stage: Consult with healthcare professionals to understand if the illness has reached an advanced stage where hospice is beneficial. - Involve Family in Discussions: Hold family meetings to discuss care preferences and the impact of transitioning to hospice care. - Seek Physician's Certification: A doctor’s evaluation is crucial. They can certify the life expectancy and recommend hospice care based on medical criteria. - Explore Hospice Options: Research hospice providers like Amedicus to find services that align with your needs. - Prepare for Transition: Discuss with the hospice team about how care will be managed, what to expect, and how to address both physical and emotional needs. Hospice eligibility is a journey of understanding and preparation. We're here to guide and support you every step of the way. For a detailed guide on hospice eligibility or to discuss your specific situation, visit www.amedicushospice.org or call us at 469-389-1028. #HospiceCare #DallasHospice #AmedicusHospice #PalliativeCare #CompassionateCare #HealthcareDallas #EndOfLifeCare #DallasHealth #PatientCenteredCare #HospiceSupport #CaregiverSupport #DallasTX

Dr Sarah Bell joined Garden House Hospice Care 10 years ago, and is our Medical Director. During that time, Sarah has broken down barriers relating to hospice care, championing living and dying well. Sarah spoke to us about why talking about death is so important this #DyingMattersAwarenessWeek. “One of the things I do as a palliative medicine specialist is to discuss patient’s wishes about their last days of life care. We ask where patients want to be looked after and where they want to be when they die; if there are treatments they don’t want; decisions relating to resuscitation, and anything related to the last period of their life. “This conversation is emotional and can be quite hard. Despite this, what I see, time after time, is the peace this conversation brings to patients and families. Simply put, patients walk a little taller and families smile a little more broadly, once those important decisions are made and key people are informed. “My wish for the future is for us all to feel able to talk about these important decisions as easily as we talk about our “bucket lists”. We sometimes forget that “bucket list” comes from “kick the bucket” – that is, a list of our things we want to do before we die. If we can talk about our “bucket list” so easily and joyfully, can we start to talk about all our other wishes related to our dying with equal ease?

Dispelling the Myths about Hospice My Physician Must Bring Up That I Am Ready For Hospice Care. Patients and their families and doctors realize hospice is appropriate, but that often happens later than it should. Patients and family members can initiate hospice care, they do not need to wait for doctors to suggest it because sometimes they won’t. For example, if patients are receiving treatments they don't want anymore, they or a caregiver can initiate hospice by discussing the option with their doctor. Another alternative is to contact Colorado Visiting Nurse Association directly to ask for an evaluation and determine qualification. Every illness has different indicators for when it might be time to begin hospice. For more information visit https://bit.ly/3Oor5Mh #ColoradoVNA #OpenConversations #HolisticCare
