Local hospice providers are excited to collaborate in bringing the following presentation to those serving end of life patients in a professional capacity.  Do you understand the difference between hospice and palliative care?  Ever wonder when is the “right” time to refer for hospice? What exactly does hospice provide and how is it funded? How can the hospice team partner with your agency in providing the best comfort care to our patients?
