When a family first reaches out about hospice, one of the biggest sources of anxiety is simply not knowing what the evaluation itself involves. Will there be tests? Will it feel invasive? Will the answer be immediate, or will there be a long wait? Understanding what actually happens during a hospice eligibility evaluation, and what [โ€ฆ]

The Medicare Hospice Benefit covers up to six months of care, but most patients use only a small fraction of it. National data shows a median hospice stay of roughly 17 to 18 days, even though about 1 in 10 patients qualify for hospice for six months or longer. That gap between what the benefit [โ€ฆ]

Anticipatory grief is the grief you feel before a loved one dies, while theyโ€™re still here. Itโ€™s common among family caregivers watching someone move through a terminal illness, and it can bring on many of the same emotions as grief after a death: sadness, anger, guilt, and exhaustion, often all at once.
