Consider hospice care when
a loved one...
-
Has a life-limiting illness.
-
Experiences shortness of breath at rest or with minimal activity.
-
Has chest pain or fatigue that limits daily life.
-
Has had multiple hospitalizations in the past six months.
-
Shows swelling in legs or abdomen that doesn’t improve with medication.
-
Experiences a decline in function and needs help with daily activities.
-

Advanced heart disease can be unpredictable and exhausting for both patients and caregivers. Hospice care helps manage symptoms, reduce hospital visits, and bring peace of mind. It allows patients to spend more meaningful time with loved ones and regain their quality of life.
