What is Hospice?

Hospice is a special skill of care directed to providing relief, comfort and support to patients and their family when facing a shortened life expectance that is no longer being dealt with curative treatment. Hospice does not extend or accelerate death, it allows the patient to live their final days with ease and integrity.

Hospice vs. Palliative Care

Hospice is comfort care without curative intent; the patient no longer has curative options or has chosen not to pursue treatment because the side effects outweigh the benefits. The prognosis is six months or less and the patient intends to allow natural death in the comfort of their residence (home, long-term care home, etc).


Palliative care is comfort care with or without curative intent. The prognosis can be for any amount of life expectancy. It is associated with severe illnesses such as chronic, progressive pulmonary disorders; renal disease; chronic heart failure; HIV/AIDS, progressive neurological conditions, cancer, etc. 


Many say that palliative care is a bridge to hospice. At Revolutionary Home Health & Hospice, we see palliative care as a road with a fork at the end. At the fork, some may take the path of hospice and others may head down the path of recovery.

Hospice and palliative care,

A loving hand when life's not fair.

Both seek to ease the pain,

And bring comfort once again.


Palliative care at any stage,

Relieves symptoms, turning a new page.

Addressing needs emotionally and more,

In the hospital or their home door.


Hospice care for those near the end,

Where curative treatments no longer mend.

Focusing on the quality of life,

In homes, facilities, or a place less rife.


Both bring teams of pros to bear,

Doctors, nurses, and those who care.

Working together to support and heal,

With compassion, empathy, and love to feel.
