To therapists:"What do I do now?" Often, this is a question you get from clients or patients. They have just received a life-limiting diagnosis and seek your advice to help make appropriate choices for end-of-life care.
As part of our ongoing educational program to expand understanding of hospice care in your community, we will be encouraging them to ask you the following questions.
Contact us to discuss answers to any of the following that pertain to your field of expertise.
- Have you worked with others who had this disease?
- How does the prognosis of this disease affect treatments?
- Will your therapy slow the disease process?
- How frequently should we schedule treatments?
- What side effects may occur during treatment, when will they begin, and how will you help me deal with them?
- What's your experience with hospice care?
- Why would we choose hospice?
- Which local hospice providers do you recommend, and why?
There's more.
