Did you know that hospice care has evolved from being a last-days-of-life service to being a holistic approach that can occur in the patient's own home? Gain a wealth of knowledge in this enlightening chat with our special guest, Nikki Inches, LLMSW, and host Attorney Bob Mannor. Nikki is not only a seasoned elder care navigator but also a dedicated social worker at Mannor Law Group.
In this episode, Nikki unravels common misconceptions about hospice care, enlightening on how it's no longer just for the final days, but a supportive measure for those with a terminal diagnosis predicted to be within six months.
We don't just stop at explaining what hospice care is, but we take you on a journey of discovery about diverse aspects of this essential service. From exploring the range of medical equipment, medications, and supplies covered, to identifying intriguing differences between for-profit and non-profit hospices. Additionally, we discuss the various benefits and considerations when choosing hospice care including key questions to ask when evaluating what a particular hospice covers.
