Today I'm talking about the myths swirling around hospice that might be preventing you from taking advantage, or even considering hospice as an option for your family. Hospice is an often misunderstood service that can be such a benefit to families living with dementia. I wanted to dedicate this episode to providing the facts around hospice. My family, and many of those I've worked with, have used hospice services and had amazingly positive experiences, both for the person living with the disease and for the family. Listen to find out what's true and what's just rumors around hospice care.
