Are you or a loved one eligible for hospice care?
To be admitted to Ease of Mind Hospice Care, patients can meet the criteria based on their diagnosis or symptoms. You have the option to either contact us directly via email and/or phone call OR complete the referral form available on our website under the "Make A Referral" tab.
Some possible signs that a person may be ready for hospice include (but not limited to):
experiencing frequent or recurring infections
rapid decline in health despite aggressive medical treatment
frequent hospitalizations or trips to the emergency room
uncontrolled pain, nausea, or vomiting
increase in the amount of time spent sleeping
loss of urinary or bowel control
chest congestion and/or rapid breathing
decrease in food and fluid intake
changes in body temperature (fever or feeling cool to the touch)
restlessness or repetitive motions
inability to perform daily tasks without assistance
It's important to note that each person's situation is unique, and a healthcare professional can help determine if hospice care is appropriate.
Let's have the conversation about end-of-life care.
Engaging in conversations about end-of-life care is important and should not be postponed. It is crucial to openly discuss your preferences, values, and thoughts regarding the continuation or withdrawal of medical treatments as you near the end of life.
