Palliative care vs. hospice care and hospice eligibility
As resident acuity increases, LTC settings are increasingly working with hospice and palliative care organizations. But what is the difference between hospice and palliative care? How can we work in partnership to better enhance resident quality of life?
Join us for an informative webinar on hospice and palliative care, designed to enhance your understanding of these vital healthcare services. Whether you're newer to healthcare or a well-seasoned professional, this webinar will provide valuable insights into the principles, practices, and benefits of hospice and palliative care.

Key topics include the differences between hospice and palliative care, the role of interdisciplinary teams in providing comprehensive care, strategies for managing symptoms and improving quality of life, and the importance of advance care planning.
