How is hospice different from other home health care?
For most home health care providers, the goal is to get the patient well. In hospice, the staff and family recognize that the patient will not get well. We focus on comfort and support, rather than cure. Benton Hospice Service provides an interdisciplinary team that works together to coordinate care and give practical and emotional support to those caring for a loved one. Benton Hospice Service also offers grief support for survivors for thirteen months after the death of a loved one.
