Being in senior hospice means receiving specialized medical care focused on comfort rather than curative treatment. The goal of hospice care is to provide support and symptom management for individuals entering end-of-life care. This includes comprehensive pain relief, emotional support, and assistance with daily living activities, all typically covered by Medicare for qualifying patients.
While senior living hospice programs provide comprehensive end-of-life care, it typically doesn’t include room and board costs in senior living communities, treatments aimed at curing the terminal illness or medications unrelated to the terminal diagnosis. However, palliative treatment and pain management for comfort are key components of the care provided.
The four hospice levels of care include:
- Routine Home Care: Regular nursing care and support provided where the patient lives
- Continuous Home Care: Intensive nursing care during periods of crisis
- General Inpatient Care: Short-term care for acute symptom management
- Respite Care: Temporary care to provide relief for family caregivers
