How can someone be referred to Hope Hospice?
An individual can be referred to Hope Hospice in a variety of ways – by their doctor, by a family member, friend, healthcare agency, nursing home, residential care facility, or a hospital. No matter how the referral is initially made, the doctor must approve the referral, confirm the six month prognosis and then complete the referral with a formal order. Families often initiate the process and request that we contact the doctor.
