About Hospice Transition

When facing an advanced illness, patients and families are tasked with the emotional process of making decisions about end-of-life care.

Patients who had previously been receiving curative treatment will begin to change their care to a plan that focuses on their personal comfort rather than physical healing.

During the transition to hospice care, Family First helps prepare your home and make decisions that are right for you and will best serve your family.
