When you or someone you love is living with a serious illness, understanding the available care and support can make a meaningful difference. Knowing the difference between hospice and palliative care — and when each may be appropriate — can help patients and families make informed decisions about their care.
Pathways Hospice will address these important topics during an upcoming Mornings at McKee senior series presentation, Hospice & Palliative Care 101.
The educational session will provide an overview of hospice and palliative care, including how each can provide comfort, support and guidance to patients and their families. Attendees will learn more about when these services may be appropriate and why beginning conversations about care earlier can help improve quality of life and ease difficult decisions.
For Pathways, community education is an important part of helping people understand their care options. Hospice and palliative care are not simply services to consider at the end of an illness. Learning about them earlier can help individuals and families understand what support is available and make choices that reflect their needs and goals.
Whether you are supporting a loved one, planning for your own future care or simply want to better understand your options, this presentation will provide practical information you can use when making decisions about care.
