Benefits of Referring Early to Hospice

  • Reduced hospitalizations
  • Pain management
  • Emotional and spiritual support
  • Higher patient and family satisfaction
  • Achievement of goals and dreams
  • Improved quality of life
There are several benefits to getting hospice earlier. The hospice team has more time to find out what matters to the patient, which allows them to tailor care to their unique needs and goals. This may result in better symptom and pain management and improved quality of life. Patients in hospice care are also more likely to be in the comfort of a home than in a hospital intensive care unit. Research shows patients in hospice live 29 days longer than those who don’t receive hospice care.

Brightmoor is Amazing !!! When my parents needed extra help doing everyday activities, the staff from Brightmoor provided services that helped not only them but the entire family. When there were issues with coordination and organization, Julie Weller was particularly knowledgable and helpful throughout the journey. Thanks to EVERYONE on the team that does an excellent job and helped us manage my families needs.
