In 2019, our mother received hospice care from The Legacy at Home, and the care provided to her was amazing. The staff was professional, available, and caring.

Nicole Goldschmid

My mother, Fannette Sonkin, was the first patient of The Legacy at Home hospice. My family and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our mother and such wonderful support for my brother, my husband, and me. The entire staff was there for all of us every step of the way. I can’t say enough about the kindness and care we all received and I am forever indebted to Legacy Hospice for their compassion and for such a peaceful end to my sweet mother’s life.

Additional Questions?

What is hospice care at home?

Hospice care at home provides compassionate support for patients nearing the end of life, allowing them to remain in the comfort and familiarity of their own home. This type of care focuses on pain management, emotional and spiritual support, and ensuring that the patient’s physical and psychological needs are met during their final stages of life. Hospice care at home allows families to be closely involved in the patient’s care while receiving support from a team of healthcare professionals.

How does hospice work?

Hospice care is designed for individuals with a terminal illness who are no longer seeking curative treatments. Once a patient is eligible for hospice, a team of doctors, nurses, social workers, and chaplains works together to create a personalized care plan. The team focuses on alleviating pain and symptoms, providing emotional and spiritual support, and offering guidance to the family. Hospice care can be provided at home, in a hospice facility, or in a hospital, depending on the patient’s needs and preferences.

What services are included in home hospice care?

Home hospice care includes a variety of services designed to maximize the quality of life for both the patient and their family. These services often include:

Pain and symptom management
Personal care (bathing, dressing, grooming)
Emotional and spiritual support
Medication and medical supplies
Support for family members, including grief counseling
Volunteer support
Respite care for caregivers

These services are all provided by a team of healthcare professionals who tailor their approach to the specific needs of the patient.

Can I continue seeing my own doctor while receiving hospice care?

Yes, you can continue seeing your own doctor while receiving hospice care. In fact, your physician may continue to be involved in your care if they are part of your hospice team. However, hospice care generally focuses on symptom management and comfort, rather than curative treatment. If your doctor is not part of the hospice care team, the hospice doctors and nurses will work closely with your primary care physician to ensure that your treatment plan aligns with your goals for care.
