Referral Process

A referral to hospice is appropriate when:

• Curative treatment is no longer the patient’s choice or option.
  
• Comfort care and symptom management become the primary focus.
  
• A patient has an life-limiting illness.
  

** Hospice services are available to patients without regard to disease, color, creed,national origin, age, sex, or ability to pay.
