Online Serious Illness Support
Hospice & Community Care is here to guide and support patients and families as you navigate serious illness and end-of-life decisions and care. While being a caregiver, loved one or friend of one of our patients, you may find yourself asking questions during this time such as:
- Should I stay or should I go?
- My loved one doesn’t want to eat, what does that mean?
- We’re arguing over their care, what should I do?
These online videos, provided by Hospice & Community Care, help you take time out and focus on what you need as a caregiver, loved one or friend and find answers to those questions. Accessible at any time on any device, find the videos that speak to you in each moment. Click the following link to be directed to the videos.
