Does choosing hospice mean the patient is giving up hope that there is nothing more the doctor’s can do to prolong life?
Physicians and patients turn to hospice when the active curative treatment for a disease is no longer effective in fighting it. Serenity Hospice focuses on quality of life and comfort care, not curative care, emphasizing symptom management and pain control. Far from giving up hope, hospice enables patients and their families to achieve their goals and fulfill their wishes in the time they have remaining.
