Thanks for your comments. I guess different hospice operations are just like anything else, some good, some not so good. Most people don't realize that most of the time you're in your own home, not their facility. In fact you might not even go to their place at all. They do offer a lot of support to the family as well as the patient.

Unlike in hospitals and nursing homes where the closer you are to death the less human contact you have, the hospice increases that contact. I can't imagine dying alone or letting anyone I loved die alone.

Thanks again.
