When treatments no longer help or the side effects of aggressive care become too heavy, it may be time for a different kind of conversation—one centered on comfort, not cure. Speaking with your doctor about hospice care isn't giving up; it's choosing to make each day more meaningful.
Many people delay asking about hospice until the final days, losing valuable time that could have been spent with extra support. Early discussions allow space to plan ahead, relieve anxiety, and ensure a smoother transition for everyone involved.
You don't need to have all the right words. Honest questions open the door:
Doctors appreciate straightforward questions and want what's best for their patients. At Pallatus, we encourage these conversations before crisis moments happen, when there's still time to prepare with clarity.
A physician plays a key role in helping you understand:
Pallatus is here to support families before, during, and after these discussions. You don't need to make every decision alone, and you don't need all the answers to begin. You just need a space to ask the right questions, and a team ready to listen. Choosing hospice isn't the end; it's the beginning. It's a chance to make time more meaningful, with support that honors your values and needs.
