Long
ago, hospice meant shelter. Refuge. A resting place on a long
and difficult journey.
Today,
Hospice is an approach to medical care that provides shelter from the
distress of terminal disease.
Rather
than prolonging life
through cure-oriented treatment Hospice uses a combination of special
skills and therapies to help the
patient and his or her family
live their remaining days
together as fully as possible.
For
those who travel this difficult journey, Hospice means a resting place
of dignity, compassion and support. |
