Is It the Right Time for Palliative or Hospice Care?
Take Our Palliative and Hospice Care Quiz
Answer these questions to determine if palliative or hospice care could benefit you or a loved one. Dealing with a series, life-limiting illness is not always easy. Paradigm Health’s community-based approach to palliative and hospice care can provide the compassionate, hands-on care and resources needed to support the patient, family and caregivers.
- Has quality of life changed for you or your loved one?
- Have you or your loved one been admitted to the hospital or gone to the emergency services department multiple times for illness in the last six months to a year?
- Have you or your loved one been told that your serious illness has progressed or has limited treatment options?
- Has the medical care for you or your loved one become too much for family to handle alone?
- Have you or your loved one experienced shortness of breath, even while at rest?
- Have you or your loved one experienced increased pain or symptoms that are no longer controlled?
- Have you or your loved one started to experience complications of care such as pneumonia, bed sores or urinary tract infections?
- Have you or your loved one fallen multiple times within the last six months?
- Has a physician started talking to you about comfort and quality of life?
If you’ve answered yes to any of the questions above, it may be time to search for a hospice or palliative caregiving partner for support and assistance. At Paradigm Health, we are good listeners and take the time to understand each patient’s individual and unique wishes for care.
