Partner With ExpectCare Hospice to Provide Timely, Compassionate Hospice Care
As a healthcare provider, you play an essential role in helping patients and families navigate serious illness and end-of-life decisions. At ExpectCare Hospice, we partner with physicians, care teams, and healthcare professionals to provide compassionate, coordinated care focused on comfort, dignity, and quality of life.
Our goal is to support your patients when hospice care may be appropriate — and to ensure they receive the benefits of hospice support as early as possible.
Recognizing When Your Patient May Benefit From Hospice Care
A hospice evaluation may be appropriate when a patient experiences:
Progressive decline despite ongoing treatment
Increasing symptom burden or difficulty managing symptoms
Frequent hospitalizations or emergency department visits
Significant weight loss or decreased nutritional intake
Increased dependence with activities of daily living
Declining functional status
A shift in goals from curative treatment toward comfort and quality of life
