How is end-of-life care different from hospice care?
Hospice is a specific type of end-of-life care usually provided when a doctor believes someone has six months or less to live. End-of-life care can include hospice but also refers more broadly to support during the final phase of life, regardless of setting.

Caregivers often help with daily comfort needs like bathing, dressing, and meal assistance. They may also help manage symptoms, offer companionship, and provide emotional reassurance to families.
How do I know when it’s time to start end-of-life care?
It’s usually time to consider end-of-life care when medical treatments are no longer improving quality of life. Families often notice signs such as increased fatigue, frequent hospital visits, or ongoing discomfort.
How can families support someone during end-of-life care?
Families can offer comfort through presence, gentle conversation, and shared memories. It also helps to ask the care team for guidance on how to ease physical and emotional discomfort.
