Hospice care

It can be tough to face changes our senior come across in later life. Some of them are especially challenging: the loss of health, independence, terminal illness… Despite the fact that it’s very difficult to accept that the end of life is approaching, some seniors choose hospice care. They decide to stop curing their illness and to focus instead on quality and comfort of life.
