Choosing the right care for a loved one can be overwhelming, especially when there are multiple options available. Knowing the differences between hospice, home health, and home care can help you make an informed decision that best fits your family’s needs.
Hospice
Hospice care focuses on enhancing the quality of life for individuals with advanced illnesses. Services often include nursing care, social work, chaplain support, bereavement counseling, and home health aids. It provides emotional and physical support for patients and families, prioritizing comfort over curative treatments.
Home Health
Home health care is skilled medical care provided in the comfort of a patient’s home. Often prescribed by a doctor, this care may include wound care, injections, speech or physical therapy, and other medical treatments.
Home Care
Home care is nonmedical support aimed at helping individuals maintain independence at home. Services include bathing and dressing assistance, medication reminders, transportation, light housekeeping, and companionship. Unlike home health or hospice, home care does not require a doctor’s prescription.
