Deciding when the right time is for hospice care

Deciding when the right time may be for hospice care can be a difficult and confusing decision. However, sometimes clarifying what hospice care is and what it is not, can help make the decision easier for you and your family members. In a recent interview on the WABI Morning Show, Northern Light Home Care and Hospice's Patricia Frith, DO, hospice physician, and Michele Stevens, BSN, RN, provider relations liaison, discuss what hospice care is, what it involves, and why it not only benefits the patient but the whole family as well.
