Answers for the questions that matter

MORE ABOUT SUPERIOR HOSPICE

How long can someone receive hospice care?

The duration varies based on individual needs and disease progression. Some may require hospice for days, others for months or longer. It’s never too early to inquire about eligibility.

Can I continue my current medications?

Yes. Medications are reviewed to align with comfort-focused care. Essential medications related to pain and symptom management are covered. Any changes are discussed collaboratively.

Is hospice care available 24/7?

Absolutely. While routine visits are scheduled, our team is on-call 24/7 to address any urgent needs or concerns.

Do I need to be homebound to receive hospice care?

No. We encourage patients to engage in life as fully as they wish, including outings and activities, as long as they’re able.

How often will I see the hospice team?

Visit frequency is tailored to individual needs, ranging from weekly to daily visits, depending on symptom management requirements.

Is a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order required?

No. While many choose to have a DNR, it’s a personal decision. Our team provides information to help you make informed choices.

What if I decide to pursue curative treatment again?

You can revoke hospice care at any time to pursue other treatments. If needed, you can return to hospice care later, pending eligibility.

What if my condition improves?

If your health improves and you no longer meet hospice criteria, services can be discontinued. Should your condition change, re-evaluation for hospice care is always available.

I'm not a trained caregiver. How can I manage?

Our team provides training and support to caregivers. If additional assistance is needed, we help arrange appropriate services or placements.

Can I keep seeing my personal doctor?

Yes. Your primary physician can remain involved. Our hospice medical director collaborates with your doctor to ensure cohesive care.

When should I consider starting hospice care?

If curative treatments are no longer effective or desired, and the focus shifts to comfort, it’s time to consider hospice. Early involvement allows for better symptom management and support.

How can I make a referral?

Anyone can make a referral to hospice, even without a physician’s note! Next, you’ll receive a free care consultation where our team will learn about your loved one’s condition and care goals, either in person, by phone, or virtually. Then, we’ll schedule a hospice assessment to better understand your loved one’s needs, explain services, and answer questions. Finally, if eligible, we’ll proceed with admission to care, ensuring a smooth, compassionate transition into hospice support.

Thank you for the lovely bouquet of flowers celebrating our 64th wedding anniversary.

Susan G.

This hospice team goes above and beyond hospice care. From managing pain for our loved one to keeping my father the cleanest that he has probably ever been in his life. I highly recommend using them for this transition in life. I don’t want to call out names here, however our nurse grabbed my fathers’ hands and actually did a little dance with him to cheer him up, made me tear up. Our bather fixed the electric razor to keep him looking his best. The chaplain/volunteer coordinator stepped in to help with a situation, that was much needed. They are truly the best people. I miss them now that my father has crossed over.

Ducati T.

Superior Hospice staff helped so much in the end days of my friend. They kept her comfortable and treated her with great respect, dignity and care. They educated me on the process and provided support. I am indeed thankful for their knowledge, kindness and excellent care.

Shelly G.

Superior Hospice has been incredible. They were responsive, sensitive, reliable, supportive, flexible, kind, and generous. The entire team from nurses to social workers, therapists (massage, ot, pt) to chaplains were outstanding. Everyone made a point of getting to know and offering support to each of us. I can’t imagine a better experience for such a challenging journey. I certainly hope we won’t require these services again, but I am so grateful we had them when we needed them.

Jennifer S.

The entire team at Superior Hospice are amazing. Everyone is so caring from the Nurses, Champlain, Home Care Aides, and Social Workers. They even make sure the family is being taken care of and even offer services like massage therapy which helps significantly with pain control.
