Hospice involves acknowledging that most diseases in their advanced form cannot be cured. It does not mean giving up hope. Hope is found in helping the patient and family achieve the highest possible level of physical comfort and peace of mind. Many hospice companies require patients to be “ready” for the end of life before receiving services. At VistaCare, you don’t have to be ready. Hope means different things to different people, and we will walk by your side on the journey to live out what hope means to you.
