What Is Hospice Care?

Hospice care is specialized support for patients with terminal illnesses who are no longer seeking curative treatment. It focuses on managing pain and symptoms, addressing emotional and spiritual needs, and helping both patients and families prepare for the final stage of life.

 

When to Consider Hospice

Hospice may be appropriate when:

  • A life-limiting illness has progressed despite treatment
  • Curative care is no longer effective or desired
  • The patient has a life expectancy of 6 months or less, as determined by a physician
  • The goal of care shifts toward comfort and quality of life rather than prolonging life at all costs

 

Services Offered

Dr. Bradshaw works in coordination with hospice agencies to provide:

  • Expert Symptom Management
    Relief from pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, nausea, and other distressing symptoms.
  • Emotional and Spiritual Support
    Counseling and compassionate care tailored to each patient’s and family’s beliefs and values.

  • In-Home or Facility Coordination
