    Insight Into Hospice Care and Services Offered for Alzheimer's Patients

    posted by Alana Clark on Monday, September 21, 2020 Although hospice services are often utilized by people with a cancer diagnosis, hospice services are also readily available to anyone who, if determined by a physician, is predicted to have a life expectancy of 6 months or less, if the disease were to run its normal course. This means hospice services can be a wonderful benefit for anyone.
