When should I contact hospice?

David Kessler (Director of Palliative Care, Citrus Valley Health Partners and Hospice) gives expert video advice on: What are the first steps in hospice care?; Where does hospice care take place?; Can my family and friends be involved in my hospice care? and more...

Unfortunately, in this country, many people contact hospice too late and wish they had called sooner, so I always recommend people investigate their options early on, before you need the services. So really, call a number of different hospices. Hospices are very willing to come to your home and give you information about the services they offer. So, call them early and find out as much as you can.
