What is hospice...and when is it appropriate for the Alzheimer's patient? by William Hammond, J.D.

·If adult children wish to learn more about the options for a parent's care and how to cope with the final stage, death.

When you decide to call hospice, you will not be left alone. The hospice team will support you and your needs. Chaplains present on the premises will guide you spiritually to ease the pain and suffering of a loss. Most hospices have group support meetings that will assist you.

To find a hospice in your area, here are the following options:

·The yellow pages directory : www.yellowpages.com

·Hospital Medical Social Workers: hospital social workers may provide you with a list of hospices in your area.

·You can search on Internet search engines by typing “finding a hospice in my area.”

·And often the best way to find hospice care for your loved one is simply to ask your doctor. He or she will be able to give you some recommendations.
